Termite Prevention & Control

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge levels of damage to buildings across Silverwater on a yearly basis, creating a strong requirement for termite prevention.

Termite Removal

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them briefly. There are two main management strategies performed for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony through baiting, and next is with chemical treatments to make a barrier between the building and the white ants. Contact us today to learn more on the costs associated with various treatment options.

As a general rule, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for white ant treatment in Silverwater. However, there are several benefits to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It is essential to have your white ant situation checked out by a professional pest controller to evaluate the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can sense these gaps and once again access the house.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on effect.

Because the termites don’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain access through gaps.

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to erradicate termites from your house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this way, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Environmentally Smart

Can Termites Badly Damage My Residence?
