Termite Removal Eastern Suburbs

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold amounts of damage to properties across Eastern Suburbs on a yearly basis, creating a large need for termite removal.

Termite Removal/Prevention Systems

You will find different types of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they are likely to apply one of two general termite management processes. 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.

Chemical remedies are the more traditional strategy to kill white ants in Eastern Suburbs homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct advantages that should not be forgotten.

It’s wise to first have a professional white ant exterminator visit the property to look at the situation.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor some locations cannot be treated due to access issues, the white ants can identify the breaks and attain ingress through those areas.

The regularly frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is much reduced.

The most applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a compounding effect.

The entire colony may be eradicated in this manner, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar manner, but they’re frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
