Termite Treatment & Protection

Termite or white ant infestations are rather common around Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many properties in Botany each year. That’s why termite pest control and inspection is extremely important.

Managing & Removing Termites

You can find various types of termite situations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Generally, in Botany, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred kind management strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some specific advantages and should be considered.

It is important to have the termite situation checked out by a professional pest controller to evaluate the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were eating previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this fashion, the nest may be eliminated even though the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for all the family & pets
• An environmentally smart solution

The Warning Signs Of Termite Infestation

Typical signs that your building is infested with termites:

• Tiny holes found in drywall or wood
• Timber is decaying or damaged
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on brickwork, timber, ceiling or subfloor
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees near the dwelling
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Do?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of white ants can cause quite a lot of damage to a building. If the infestation becomes serious enough, your house could become unsafe.
