Extermination & Prevention Against Termites

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge amounts of damage to properties in Parramatta each year, creating a large requirement for termite extermination.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at them briefly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite control: one is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and next is using chemical treatment to make a barrier between the home and the colony. Call us today for more information on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

White ant extermination in Parramatta homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys can bring some definate benefits that cannot be ignored.

It is important to engage the expertise of an expert pest exterminator to check out your structures so the damage can be fully assessed.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants may recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the timber that they have been eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in places where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the building design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for youngsters and pets
