Remedy For Termite Infestation

In Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a significant amount of property damage annually. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of Mascot are encouraged to find quality termite removal services.

Termite Removal/Management Systems

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at them briefly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and second is with chemical treatments to create a barrier between the house and the white ants. Call us today for more information on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

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

It is important to engage the services of an expert termite exterminator to check out your house in order that the damage can be fully assessed.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated because of access difficulties, the termites will identify the breaks and attain access via them.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding result.

Because termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire colony can be exterminated in this way, regardless of if the location of the colony 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 activity.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

How To Tell If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

General signs that your house is infested with termites:

• Wood in the home has holes
• Damaged or decaying wood
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Nests or mounds below trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

How Problematic Can Termites Be?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites are capable of doing quite a lot of damage to a house. If the infestation becomes serious enough, your structure could become unusable.
