Exterra termite baits are a new, environmentally safe option for termite control (White ants) Sydney, Australia.
Extensive field trials clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the Exterra system for termite control in Australia, USA, and Japan in a wide range of conditions.
At All Guard Pest Control, on the basis of field work experience, we recommend the use of the Exterra termite baiting system in and around a building as part of an integrated termite control and monitoring program, where:
-
Complete chemical soil treatment using Termidor or Premise is not practicable, or desired, and -
Where a large number (10,000 or more) live termites are likely to consume the termite bait, within 30 days.

The Termite Management Revolution
Welcome to the future of termite control - termite baiting with Exterra.
Until recently in Sydney, Australia, the almost exclusively used method of white-ant control was the application of a chemical termite barrier. The application of such a barrier to your home would typically involve spraying large volumes of toxic and environmentally persistent chemicals around and under its foundation in close proximity to you and your family. But Exterra radically changes all that!
As important as these environment-friendly features are, Exterra's advantage compared to chemical barriers is its ability to eliminate the actual source of the termite problem - the termite colony itself.
Subterranean Termites (White ants)
Subterranean termites live in the ground and are commonly located under and around buildings. This is quite natural. Also natural is their appetite for wood, which they are designed by nature to consume and digest Termites and their insatiable appetite for wood create a problem only when they enter buildings in search of a new food source, especially in Sydney suburbs.
Termite barriers handle the termites-looking-for-wood-in-the-wrong-place problem by either repelling termites that attempt to cross the barrier or by killing termites that come in contact with the barrier. To properly protect a building, a barrier must be placed under and around the entire foundation of the building where termites will encounter it as they try to enter from beneath (which they must do since the form of termites that eat wood cannot fly).
To be totally effective the barrier must be applied under and around the entire building foundation at a high enough concentration that every possible point of potential termite entry into the building is protected. But what happens if the barrier is not continuous or is not strong enough?
Even the most carefully applied barrier treatments do not always form continuous and uniformly strong barriers between the building and the termite infested earth beneath them. This is because of the tedious nature of the application process and the difficulty of placing a barrier beneath an existing building. Almost inevitably, gaps or breaks are left in the barrier through which termites can invade. Variations can occur in the strength of the barrier.
Forming a continuous and uniformly strong barrier under a concrete slab floor is rarely if ever possible. This means that if a slab floor cracks at a point at which the barrier is too weak or no barrier has been applied, termites can enter the building unimpeded and often undetected until they have done large amounts of damage. And termites can penetrate a crack as narrow as 1mm. Pest control firms in Brisbane have recorded homes damaged by termite attack less than 12 months old!
The use of the Exterra Termite Baiting System can be the best "stand-alone" option in environmentally sensitive situations, such as, where a termite infested building is near a waterway and a soil barrier treatment may contaminate the waterway, or where it is not practical or desired by the home-owner to drill expensive parquetry or floor tiles in order to apply a complete and continuous proper chemical treated soil barrier at the base of the building to prevent subterranean termite entry into the building.

How does Exterra Work?
Exterra is designed for use in and around a building under attack from termites and/or as part of an ongoing monitoring plan to determine extent of localised white-ant activity. The aim is to successfully "collect" and bait a large number of termites in a remote Exterra bait station. The baited termites transfer the bait as food back to the central subterranean termite colony, which is eventually eliminated as a result.
The potential for the termites to "find" a bait station is not yet fully understood or appreciated. Subterranean termites seek out new food sources on a random basis but we know they are often guided by environmental circumstances - such as a readily available moisture source - near an automated watering system, etc.
As important as these environment-friendly features are, Exterra's advantage compared to chemical barriers is its ability to eliminate the actual source of the termite problem - the termite colony itself.
Remember: Termite barriers are only a passive approach to termite control.
But Exterra is a proactive, go get 'em before they get your home from of white-ants damage. Exterra doesn't just kill termites when they try to enter your home. It can actually eliminate the termite nest or colony and all its members right in the ground where it lives.
Termite (white ants) colony elimination is the most important advantage of Exterra. However an important added bonus of using Exterra is the significant reduction in the amount of toxicant necessary to manage termites at a site when compared to barrier treatments. When you are thinking of a safe option, especially in Sydney, Australia, ask for Exterra termite baits for lasting monitoring and termite protection.
