Control & Extermination Against Termites

Around Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a significant amount of property damage annually. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Paddington are encouraged to seek reliable termite control services.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments vary in terms of their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. The two main termite management strategies; trying to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Contact us today for more information on the price of termite controls.

Typically, in Paddington, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred kind control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific benefits and should also be considered.

It is essential to have your white ant situation checked out by a professional pest controller to assess the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated places aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can detect these breaks and access the home.

The most frequently utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

The most commonly used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat features a residual life of up to 8 years after application.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

The entire nest can be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the building design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Environmentally Friendly

The Warning Signs Of Termite Infestation

• Obvious termite nests & mounds in trees close to the building
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the colony
