Extermination & Control Against Termites

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. Once they infest a property, termites can rapidly cause a lot of damage, making it important to call your reliable Northmead termite extermination provider.

Termite Removal

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are generally employed for termite management in Northmead; either the production of a termite barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Call us today for more info about the price for termite treatment and management.

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

To ensure the job is done right, it is essential to have a trusted termite exterminator in to assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection in treated locations. However, if not all locations are reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can identify those gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites can’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the building design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger for youngsters & pets
• Ecologically Friendly

The Telltale Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Here are the common signs you have termites:

• Holes bored in timber panels or drywall
• Damaged or crumbling wood
• Mud tubes appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Trees in the area show signs of nests & mounds
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying from the nest

How Destructive Are Termites?

When left untreated, even a single nest of termites are capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The building can even become unsafe due to the severity of the problem, and in the extreme, may be unrepairable.
