Termite Protection & Treatment

In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and homes in Pemulwuy Parramatta each year, making termite inspection so essential.

Termite Removal

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at each briefly. There are two main strategies conducted for termite pest control: first is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and second is with chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the home and the colony. Call us today for more information on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Chemical remedies are the more typical strategy to kill white ants in Pemulwuy homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct advantages which cannot be ignored.

To ensure the job is done correctly, it’s crucial to have a reliable pest exterminator in to look at the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

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

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
