Termite Inspection & Prevention

White ant or termite infestations are quite frequent in Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many structures in Currans Hill each year. That is why termite inspection and prevention is very important.

Managing & Removing Termites

Termite treatments vary in terms of their aims and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are 2 main termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to make a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected. Contact us today for additional information on the cost of termite inspections.

Chemical treatments are a more standard treatment to eliminate white ants in Currans Hill homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct benefits which cannot be forgotten.

It is important to have the white ant situation examined by a professional bug exterminator to look at the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise these gaps and can sometimes get in.

The most widely used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for kids and pets
• Eco-friendly

How To Identify If Your House Is Infested With Termites

• Small holes bored in timber panels
• Damaged or disintegrating wood
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on the wood, floor boards, ceilings, brick work and in subfloor areas
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the termite nest
