Termite Protection & Treatment

Around Australia, termites are often called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a massive amount of property damage each year. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Matraville are encouraged to seek reliable termite prevention services.

Termite Removal & Prevention

Termite treatments vary with regards to their goals and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; attempting to exterminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which try to create a barrier between the termites and the building being protected. Contact us today for additional info on the cost of termite preventions.

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

It is important to bring in a professional termite exterminator to visit your premises and assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some locations can’t be treated due to access difficulties, the white ants will identify the gaps and attain ingress via those areas.

The regularly frequently applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may also pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

Because the termites don’t identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain access via gaps.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the timber that they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

In this manner, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the location of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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 catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Environmentally friendly
