Termite Protection & Control

In Australia it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and homes in Westmead each year, making termite protection so essential.

Termite Control & Protection

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at each briefly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and next is using chemical treatments to create a barrier between the building and the white ants. Call us today to learn more about the costs associated with various treatment options.

Chemical treatments are a more typical treatment to kill termites in Westmead homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct advantages which should not be ignored.

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

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain ingress.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites cannot identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is commonly used to erradicate termites in your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

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

In Ground Systems are often installed around 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 intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
