Termite Treatment and Control Adelaide

Termite Control

Termites, also referred to as white ants, have the ability to cause irreparable damage to a home, and its foundation/structure if left untreated, and effective termite treatment is essential to safeguard your property from these troublesome pests. Fortunately, our team provides affordable, effective, and natural termite control in Adelaide when you suspect termites may be present on your property.

Termite Infestation Eradication

At TFN, we provide both termite eradication and infestation services. When it comes to eradication, once termites are found to be active, TFN eradicates the colony either directly or by baiting.

  • Direct Eradication Method

    Our preferred method of termite control is to directly kill a colony. To do so, we inspect all trees in the vicinity by drilling a small hole (harmless for the tree) into which a temperature probe is inserted to establish the presence of the termite queen. 


    Where the tree temperature is about 30-34c, it's likely a termite queen is reproducing. A tree’s lower temperature reading will verify that termites are just feeding on it, rather than a colony residing in it. Once a colony has been identified, necessary action will take place to directly eradicate the population.

  • Indirect Eradication Method

    Occasionally a colony cannot be located, in which case a bait trap is set. A bait trap can be set inside the building where the active termites are currently feeding from or if you already have the TFN trap system installed the bait can be used directly on the active trap. Once the Bait Trap is installed, the termites prefer to eat the bait rather than the timber they are feeding on. The bait is then carried back to the nest where it is fed to the entire colony completely eradicating the nest.


    Using the described termite baiting system most colonies will be destroyed within 6-12 weeks (can take longer over the winter months). Note: Spraying will not eradicate a termite colony. It may mask the presence of the colony for a time, but unless the nest has been completely eradicated the termites will return.

Termite Infestation Prevention

Natural termite treatment and prevention is easier than you think! By installing an early warning system around the perimeter of your home, you can prevent an infestation of a colony of termites from forming. This can be completed by us (if you are within 100km of Adelaides CBD), or by yourself, using one of our DIY packs


The system is designed to attract any termites BEFORE they can reach your property. Our residential and commercial termite treatment comprises several termite traps strategically located to provide full coverage around your property. The system is then checked (either by you or our team) at regular intervals for any signs of termite activity. If termites are detected, baits are installed in the traps to completely eradicate the colony.
