Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. Once they infest a property, termites can rapidly create a lot of damage, making it vital to call your trusted Campbelltown Claymore termite removal provider.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are several treatments possible and each one has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are typically used for termite management in Claymore; either the production of a termite barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Call us today for additional information on the cost for termite management and treatment.

Termite removal in Claymore residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may bring some distinct advantages that can not be ignored.

It is wise to first get a professional termite exterminator visit the property to fully evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants can recognise these gaps and could sometimes get in.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites don’t identify non-repellents, they will not recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of 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 colony can be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

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