Termite Control
Beaconsfield Eastern Suburbs

Termite Treatment & Protection

across the country it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in Beaconsfield Eastern Suburbs every year, making termite control so important.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically utilised for termite management in Beaconsfield; either the production of a white ant barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Contact us today for additional information on the price for termite treatment and management.

Termite control in Beaconsfield homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may bring some distinct advantages that can not be ignored.

It’s important to first have a professional white ant exterminator come out to the house to assess the damage.

Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect the breaks and access the building.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the potential for termite ingress via untreated gaps is much lower.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the structure. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar fashion, however they are frequently installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.
