Treatment For Termite Infestation

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight around Australia. Once they infest a residence, termites can rapidly cause a lot of damage, making it crucial to call your trusted Greystanes termite extermination provider.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are different types of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are likely to apply one of two general termite prevention strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Typically, in Greystanes, termite experts use a chemical treatment as the preferred type removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has distinct benefits and should be considered.

To ensure the job is done correctly, it’s advised to get a reliable pest exterminator in to review the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or areas cannot be treated as a result of access issues, then termites will identify those breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they will not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites will move over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual insects will pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is reduced.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to erradicate termites from your structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
