Termite Management
Termite Management Systems Gold Coast
A professional termite management system is the most reliable way to protect your property long-term. Zapem Pest Management specialises in installing and maintaining advanced solutions including Termidor chemical soil barriers and Trelona advanced baiting systems.
Protecting your home or business from termites is one of the smartest investments you can make. On the Gold Coast, where warm weather and high humidity create perfect conditions for termites, the risk is especially high. Termite damage is rarely covered by insurance, and repairs can cost tens of thousands of dollars..
Why You Need a Termite Management System
Termites are silent invaders. By the time you see obvious damage, they may have already compromised the structural integrity of your property. A termite management system:
- Creates a continuous protective zone around your home
- Detects and eliminates termite activity early
- Provides ongoing, renewable protection year after year
- Complies with Australian Standards (AS 3660)
The first step in any protection plan is a termite inspection. This allows us to assess your property, identify risks, and recommend the best management system for your needs.
Our Termite Management Systems
We use two proven termite management solutions tailored to Gold Coast conditions, Termidor, a chemical zone, and Trelona, a baiting system.
Chemical protective ZONE – Termidor
A liquid termiticide called Termidor is applied to the soil around your property, creating a treated zone termites cannot cross. If termites attempt to tunnel through, they are eliminated before they reach your home.
- Lifespan: 5–8 years depending on soil conditions and maintenance
- Ideal for established homes with soil access around the perimeter
- Requires annual inspection to ensure continued effectiveness
Termite Baiting System – trelona
The Trelona ATBS (Advanced Termite Baiting System) is one of the most effective and flexible baiting systems on the market. Stations are installed around your property and checked regularly by licensed technicians.
- Termites are naturally attracted to the bait and spread it throughout the colony
- Low-toxicity option, safer for families and pets
- Can be installed in any soil type or garden layout
- Provides continuous protection through ongoing monitoring
Step-by-Step Protection
- Inspection – We carry out a full termite inspection to assess current activity and risks.
- Installation – A barrier, baiting system, or combination is installed to suit your property.
- Monitoring – Systems are checked regularly to confirm effectiveness.
- Renewal – Barriers are renewed every 5–8 years; Trelona stations are maintained year-round.

Termite Management System Costs
The cost of a termite management system varies depending on property size, soil type, and the system chosen.
| System Type | Typical Cost | Maintenance |
| Termidor Chemical Barrier | $3,500 – $5,000 | Renew every 5–8 years |
| Trelona Baiting System | $2,500+ initial setup | Ongoing monitoring + bait replacement |
| Combined System | $3,500+ | Maximum protection with regular checks |
While this is an upfront investment, it is far less than the cost of repairing termite damage, which often exceeds $20,000–$100,000
