Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold quantities of damage to houses in Woollahra Eastern Suburbs annually, creating a strong requirement for termite removal.

Termite Control/Protection Systems

Termite treatments change with regards to their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments that try to create a barrier between the termites and the structure being protected. Phone us today for additional info on the price of termite removals.

Chemical treatments are the more standard strategy to eliminate termites in Woollahra homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct benefits which should not be ignored.

It is important to call in a specialist termite exterminator to check out your home and evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can sense the gaps and access the building.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and so they will not steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will move through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual insects pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because the termites do not detect non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your home 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 timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding result.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
