Our Services

The following treatments are provided by our Tablelands, Mareeba, and Cairns termite specialists.

Chemical Perimeter Soil Treatments

This method involves adding chemicals to the soil in the form of a barrier. Some chemicals serve as deterrents to termites, while others are slow-acting – allowing the termite to return to the colony with the chemicals to eradicate it at the source. Treatment chemicals can be sprayed on directly or administered in a controlled way via a reticulated pipe. The method may require drilling in concrete surfaces.

Termite Monitoring & Baiting Stations

Typically installed in soil at 3-metre intervals to form a barrier around the property, these stations contain timber attractants. Termites that enter will ingest a non-poisonous, growth-inhibiting substance that will impede and eventually stop the development of the colony. Above, in-ground, and in-concrete stations are available.

Dusting

Dusting is a relatively simple treatment that involves applying a toxic powder to termites directly. The substance is eventually returned to the nest by termites, resulting in the eradication of the colony. It should be noted that dusting is only effective when used in conjunction with other termite treatments.

Remedial Treatments

Applied only at the exterior of homes, spot treatments involve the application of termiticides that will immediately kill termites present. They can be useful for treating garden beds, stumps, and trees.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do termite chemical barriers last?

In order to maintain the effectiveness of your termite barriers, it is advisable to reapply the chemicals every 5 years.
How long does it take to install termite baiting and monitoring systems?

In general, this can be completed in just 1 day.
Are termites hard to get rid of?

That depends entirely on the extent of the colony and its infiltration. Small colonies outside your home can be eradicated easily. However, if they are deep within the structure of your home, it may take far longer to resolve the issue. That’s why a good protection system is paramount.
