Termite Treatment Tamarama

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold levels of damage to houses across Tamarama annually, creating a strong need for termite treatment.

Termite Removal/Management Systems

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at them briefly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and next is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the home and the termites. Call us today for additional information on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Generally, in Tamarama, termite experts will make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred form management strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some specific benefits and should also be considered.

It’s important to get in a professional termite exterminator to visit your house and evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor places cannot be treated as a result of access problems, the white ants will detect those breaks and gain access via them.

The often frequently applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the property 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 structure. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding effect.

In this way, the nest can be eliminated even though the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Unaffected by weather
• Safe for kids and pets
• Eco-friendly

The Telltale Signs Of Termite Infestation

Several signs that you could have a termite problem include:

• Small holes found in drywall or timber
• Wood that is damaged or crumbling
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Nests or mounds below trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites (white ants) can cause quite a lot of damage to a house. If the problem becomes bad enough, the property could become unlivable.
