Removing & Managing Termites

There are several treatments possible and each has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Mays Hill; either the production of a termite barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

Generally, in Mays Hill, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred type control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some distinct benefits and should be considered.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites may recognise these gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as eight years after treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to children or pets
• Ecologically smart

Common Signs That You May Have Termites

Here are the telltale signs of a termite infestation:

• Small holes in the drywall or timber
• Wood which is damaged and crumbling
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Mounds or colonys can be seen in nearby trees
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?

It surprises many people to discover that white ants may do a significant amount of damage to structures. In fact, even a single nest of termites can render a house unsafe if the problem is severe enough. Set your mind at ease; call Mays Hill Termite Pest Control and have one of our termite prevention specialists inspect your Mays Hill residence asap.
