Termite Treatment & Protection

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Winston Hills each year, making termite control so vital.

Termite Control & Protection

There are various kinds of termite situations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention systems. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical treatments are a more typical treatment to kill white ants in Winston Hills homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits which should not be ignored.

It’s important to first have a professional termite exterminator visit the home to fully look at the situation.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided, they provide great protection for treated areas. However, if not all locations are treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants can also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because the termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

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 employed to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
