In Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a significant amount of property damage every year. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of Rouse Hill Hills District are encouraged to seek quality termite treatment services.

Termite Removal

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Rouse Hill; either the production of a termite barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

Termite treatment in Rouse Hill homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to eradicate the termite colonys may have some definate advantages that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated as a result of access difficulties, then white ants can identify those gaps and attain ingress through those areas.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the potential for termite ingress via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to 8 years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding effect.

The entire nest can be exterminated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a swelling can make it challenging to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
