Protection & Pest Control Against Termites

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge amounts of damage to buildings in Double Bay annually, creating a large need for termite protection.

Termite Control/Protection Systems

There are different kinds of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the professionals, they are likely to apply one of two general termite prevention strategies. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

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

It is crucial to have the white ant situation examined by a professional pest controller to evaluate the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can detect these breaks and access the home.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites can also pass the chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Since termites can not identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is much reduced.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the building by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

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 especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger for kids & pets

The Telltale Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Can Termites Badly Damage My Home?

If left untreated, even just one colony of termites is capable of doing a surprising amount of destruction. The building may even become unlivable due to the significance of the issue, and in extreme cases, may even be unrepairable.
