Remedy For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge quantities of damage to houses in Kentlyn annually, creating a large need for termite pest control.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments alter with regards to their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are 2 major termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that try to produce a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected. Give us a call today for additional information on the price of termite pest controls.

Chemical treatments are the more typical strategy to eliminate termites in Kentlyn homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct advantages that should not be ignored.

It is important to first have a professional termite exterminator visit the property to fully assess the situation.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain entry.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

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

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially useful when the design of a structure will make it tricky to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Environmentally friendly
