Termite Prevention & Extermination

Termite or white ant infestations are rather common in Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many homes in Guildford each year. That’s why termite prevention and extermination is very important.

Termite Removal & Prevention

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Guildford; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the structure and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Call us today for more information about the price for termite management and treatment.

White ant prevention in Guildford residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may bring some definate advantages that cannot be ignored.

It is advantageous to engage the expertise of an experienced pest exterminator to look at your property so that the damage can be thoroughly reviewed.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may identify these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellents, they will not recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

The regularly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber that they were 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 then feed that bait to further colony members.

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

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Environmentally smart

The Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Typical signs that your building is infested with termites:

• Little holes found in drywall or wood
• Damaged & crumbling timber
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Colonys or mounds in trees
• Winged termites or alates can be seen leaving the colony

Can A Colony Of Termites Really Damage My Dwelling?

When left untreated, even just one colony of termites are capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The home can even become unlivable due to the severity of the infestation, and in extreme cases, can even be unrepairable.
