Termite Treatments & Protection | Gold Coast & BNE
With an estimated 1 in 3 Australian homes being affected by termites you can’t afford to settle for a second rate solution. Dave’s Termite Treatment & Protection Service targets infestation with 3 different methods depending on the severity and nature of the infestation.
1. Baiting & Monitoring
A popular alternative to chemicals; baiting traps work to discreetly destroy an infestation of termites from within the colony itself. Termites work as one unit, once they detect the bait they will bring it back to their nest and queen. The poison will be consumed and spread throughout the colony killing its population.
The Sentricon Always Active System is the best choice for termite baiting. Where older traps require checking every 6-8 weeks Sentricon Always Active is 4 times a year.. Avoid massive damage and repair costs to your property Call 0422 237 105 today.
2. Chemically Treated Zone
To fully protect your property from Termites, have a fully licensed technician install a Chemically Treated Zone (chemical barrier). Install a chemical barrier means a trench must be dug roughly 200mm wide at the edge of the house slab and footings.
The soil needs to absorb the poison then be back filled in order to effectively repel or kill the termites as they are often subterranean nesting. Chemically Treated Zones are a thoroughly long term solution to termite infestation with the product usually lasting 3-10 years depending on chemicals used.
