Inspection & Removal Against Termites

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold levels of damage to properties across Hillsdale every year, creating a large need for termite inspection.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Hillsdale; either the production of a termite barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Contact us today for more information about the cost for termite management and treatment.

Chemical remedies are a more traditional strategy to get rid of termites in Hillsdale homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct benefits which should not be ignored.

To make sure the job is carried out right, it is crucial to get a specialist termite exterminator in to assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the chance for termite access through untreated gaps is much lower.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the building by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they are attacking. This kills those termites that ingest 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 colony will be exterminated, even if you don’t 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 Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger to children & pets
• Environmentally sound
