Termite Inspection Glen Alpine

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight in Australia. Once they infest a home, termites can rapidly cause a large amount of damage, making it crucial to call your trusted Glen Alpine termite inspection provider.

Termite Removal/Protection Systems

There are various kinds of termite infestations so the best treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they will going to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical treatments are the more typical strategy to eliminate white ants in Glen Alpine homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct advantages which should not be forgotten.

It is important to have the termite situation checked out by a professional bug exterminator to assess the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

If you believe that your residence or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Give us a call and get the advice of the best termite inspection team covering the Glen Alpine area. We can assist you to make an educated decision on this vital service, and offer you a competitive price for treatment.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites will identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

The most commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may often pass the chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites can’t identify non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of 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.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be eliminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger to kids or pets
• Ecologically sound

Signs That You May Have Termites

There are many signs that your home suffers from a termite infestation:

• Wood in the home has holes
• Wood which is damaged and collapsing
• Evidence of mud tubes on brickwork, wood, ceiling and/or subfloor areas
• Obvious termite nests & mounds in trees close to the home
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying to and from the colony

What Destruction Can Termites Cause?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of white ants can cause a lot of damage to a dwelling. If the problem becomes bad enough, the dwelling may potentially become unsafe.
