Inspection & Prevention Against Termites

In Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can wreak a significant amount of property damage annually. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of Mascot are encouraged to seek reliable termite inspection services.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically utilised for termite management in Mascot; either the production of a white ant barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Call us today for more information on the cost for termite management and treatment.

Chemical remedies are a more traditional treatment to get rid of termites in Mascot homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has some distinct benefits which cannot be forgotten.

It is vital to bring in a professional termite exterminator to check out your house and assess the damage.

If you believe that your home or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Call us and receive the help of the best termite inspection team covering the Mascot area. We can help you to make an educated decision on this vital service, and offer you a very competitive price for treatment.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor areas can not be treated due to access issues, the termites can detect the breaks and gain ingress through them.

The often widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated locations, the potential for termite access through non-treated gaps is far lower.

The most commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• No danger to kids & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
