Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight around Australia. Once they infest a house, termites can rapidly cause a considerable amount of damage, making it important to call your reliable Redfern termite pest control provider.

Removing & Managing Termites

You can find several types of termite situations therefore the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are likely to apply one of two general termite management strategies. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In Redfern, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ benefits that shouldn’t be ignored.

It is crucial to have the white ant situation checked out by a professional pest controller to look at the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a flow on effect.

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

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to 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 that the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber they have been eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony 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 may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger for children & pets
• Environmentally friendly
