How to choose an effective termite treatment in Sydney?

A White Ant (more commonly known as a termite) is a social insect that builds its nest in soil or wood and causes severe damage to wooden structures ranging such as trees and residential homes; if the wood is close to the soil, termites will invade it. If you are a resident of Sydney, you must be aware of the fact that substantial damage can be caused to the wooden structure or a home due to a termite infestation throughout Sydney. These damages are hard to detect until it’s too late and the cost for repairs can be astonishing.

Termite control should be a prime concern to all residents of Sydney. Statistics have shown that one in three houses throughout Sydney have had, or are having, problems with termite infestation. Prevention of termites in Sydney can be done in two ways: chemical barriers and physical barriers. The best defense is a good offence, and these barriers are used for prohibiting the termites to enter into the house from the very beginning.

Many people are unaware, or simply aren’t bothered by the risk that is caused due to the termites in Sydney. Once the damage is done, the only option is to eradicate the termite pests and carry out repairs on the building. These repairs are often extremely costly and can leave families without a roof over their heads. Regular inspections for your home can ensure the safety of you and your family. We can offer a range of termite pest control services options including Termite Interception & Baiting Systems to the more traditional chemical application methods.

Termite inspections used to be an invasive procedure, requiring drilling and causing minor damage to homes in order to find out if termites are active in the wooden structure. However, in the last decade rapid advancements in technology have brought about detection methods for termites that no longer require the inspector to damage the property to inspect it. These devices can detect the termite’s movements through the wooden structure. Compared to the cost of a full renovation to remove termite damage, regular inspections are a good insurance.

Termites can also be baited. This bait is consumed by the worker termites and spread throughout the colony. This can eradicate the entire colony in one movement. Baiting can be performed once an infestation has been discovered, however if damage has already been caused, repairs are essential.
