How Termite Bait Stations Can Safeguard Your Home
Termites are silent invaders that cause thousands of dollars in uninsured structural damage to Sydney homes. Hills Guardian installs professional-grade termite baiting systems, like Exterra, to proactively monitor activity and eliminate entire colonies at the source before they reach your foundations.
The Silent Threat to Your Property
In Sydney’s warm, damp climate, a single termite queen can produce thousands of eggs daily. Termites feed on cellulose found in your home's timber structure, often remaining undetected until floors sag or walls are hollowed out. Because standard home insurance typically excludes termite damage, a proactive defense is essential to avoid repair bills that can reach $100,000.
How Termite Bait Stations Work
Unlike liquid barriers that attempt to repel insects, bait stations leverage the termites' natural foraging behavior to destroy the nest.
In-Ground Stations (Prevention): Units are buried around the perimeter of your home (usually every three meters). They act as a "security alarm," using timber to attract foraging termites. Once detected, the timber is replaced with bait.
Above-Ground Stations (Eradication): If active termites are found inside your home, these stations are placed directly over the infestation points to immediately draw them away from your structural timber and into the bait.
The Exterra Advantage: Colony Elimination
Hills Guardian uses the Exterra system, featuring the non-toxic bait REQUIEM®. This system is widely considered the premier solution for long-term protection:
Undetectable Action: Termites cannot "taste" the bait. They consume it and carry it back to the nest, sharing it with the entire colony.
Gradual Eradication: The bait prevents termites from shedding their skins. Because it works slowly (roughly four months), the colony doesn't realize the source of their decline until the entire nest is wiped out.
Family & Pet Safe: The formula is non-toxic to humans, pets, and the environment, making it a low-impact alternative to heavy chemical soil treatments.
Our Professional Monitoring Process
At Hills Guardian, we don't just "set and forget" your stations. We provide a comprehensive management plan:
Full Inspection: We assess your property for active termites and identify high-risk areas.
Strategic Installation: Stations are placed in-ground, in-concrete, or above-ground as required.
Routine Monitoring: Our technicians visit every seven weeks to check for activity.
Bait Introduction: As soon as termites are detected in a station, the active bait is introduced to begin the colony elimination process.
Ongoing Protection: Even after a colony is destroyed, the in-ground units remain to defend against future foraging "scout" termites.
With over 35 years of experience in the Hills District, we provide the local expertise needed to safeguard your biggest investment.
