Termite Extermination & Removal

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold quantities of damage to homes across South Granville on a yearly basis, creating a large need for termite extermination.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

Termite treatments vary regarding their aims and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the structure to be protected.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants may identify the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may often transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a flow on and efficient result.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites in the dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a flow on result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
