How Pest Control Services Treat Termite Infestations

Termites leave plenty of tell-tale signs. Don’t wait for your services inspections to find termites when the evidence is right in front of you. Besides clear damage to the wood in the property, look out for these.

  • Termites build shelter tubes from mud so if you see mud tubes in your basement or elsewhere, you may have a termite infestation.
  • Some termites called alates have wings. They alight from a colony in the warm summer months to find a new property and start breeding a new colony of termites. If you see swarms of flying termites close to your property, it could be a sign of a termite colony close by.  

Treating Termites in Brisbane

Termite Control – Baiting

One of the preferred ways of treating termites in Queensland is through termite baiting. Bait stations are placed at regular distances in the vicinity of the termite colony. The workers help themselves from the baiting stations. They feed the other termites and in so doing kill off the colony. 

Termite nests are often difficult to find. Termite baiting helps with pest control as it targets termites in their nests. Find the help and advice you need at EPM Pest Control Brisbane termite services.

Termite Infestation – Chemical Termite Barrier

A termite barrier system offers homeowners the best protection against termite infestations. Chemical termite barriers, also known as termiticides, can offer years of termite protection when applied to the perimeter of the building. 

As a termite prevention method, professional pest control services can install termite barriers, to prevent termites from getting anywhere near your property. Once the termite protection is in place, termites encountering the barrier are killed off but not before they have taken the poison into the colony.
