What does a Termite Treatment Cost?
List of Chemical “White Ant” Treatments
These are my favourites and what I consider to be the best termite treatments:
- 1. Termidor (Fipronil)
- 2. Premise (Imidacloprid)
- 3. Biflex (Bifenthion)
The Organochlorines
Aldrin, Chlordane, Dieldrin, and Heptachlor were commonly used prior to 1995.
These ones are the worst in my opinion as they are dangerous, outlawed back in 1995 and gave a lot of people false security. They are the dreaded Oganochlorine group of termiticides (insecticides that kill termites)
What is the Cost of Termite Treatments?
It depends. Generally speaking, for a normal 3-4 bedroom home it will cost between $2,000 to $4,000 for a chemical treatment using Termidor, Premise or Biflex. Bait systems are strongly recomended so that you have a “frontline” defence against future termite attack. Our average cost including a termite baiting system works out around $3,800.
Termite control cost is dependant on these factors;
For the very best termite treatment I recommend Termidor after a thermal termite report
Treatments combined with a termite baiting system to monitor activity are your best protection in my opinion.
* Tip* The price of termite treament will often be cheaper during the cooler months, as pest control firms are looking for work during these periods.
