Termite Removal/Protection Systems

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Silverwater; either the production of a termite barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

The often frequently utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated locations, the possibility of termite access through untreated gaps is much lower.

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your structure by placing bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been 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 nest members.

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, but they are frequently situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
