Inspection & Protection Against Termites

across the country it is quite common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in Eastlakes annually, making termite inspection so crucial.

Termite Removal

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at each briefly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is using chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the residence and the white ants. Call us today to find out more on the costs involved with various treatment options.

White ant inspection in Eastlakes residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may have some definate advantages that can not be ignored.

It is important to engage the services of an expert termite exterminator to look at your residence so the damage can be fully assessed.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise the gaps and gain ingress.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the structure by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Ecologically friendly

How To Identify If Your Property Is Infested With Termites

General signs that your house is infested with termites:

• Miniscule holes in drywall and timber
• Wood is crumbling or damaged
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, timber, ceiling and/or sub floor
• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Winged termites (or alates) can be seen leaving the colony

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites is capable of doing significant amounts of damage to a structure. If the infestation becomes bad enough, your house could become unusable.
