Termite Protection & Treatment

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Potts Hill every year, making termite removal so vital.

Termite Control/Protection Systems

There are several treatments possible and each one has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are generally utilised for termite management in Potts Hill; either the production of a white ant barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Call us today for additional information about the cost for termite management and treatment.

Generally, in Potts Hill, termite experts use a chemical treatment as the preferred type control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has distinct advantages and should be considered.

It is important to bring in an experienced termite exterminator to visit your property and assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some areas can not be treated due to access issues, the termites may detect the breaks and gain access through them.

The most frequently utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t detect non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the timber that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

An entire colony may be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar way, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
