Cure For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge amounts of damage to properties in Darling Point on a yearly basis, creating a strong requirement for termite control.

Termite Removal & Management

You can find various types of termite infestations and so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the specialists, they are going to apply one of two general termite protection processes. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical treatments are a more typical strategy to get rid of termites in Darling Point homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct benefits which should not be forgotten.

It is essential to have your termite situation examined by a professional pest controller to look at the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, so they provide great protection for treated locations. If not all locations are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and get access via them.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.

The most often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your building by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they were attacking. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

An entire colony may be eliminated in this manner, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, however they are usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.
