What is involved
A termite reticulation system is a network of perforated pipes laid around and under the edges of a building. Termiticide is pumped through the pipes to create a continuous treated zone in the soil, and the system is refilled at intervals so the protection does not run out. It can be installed during construction, before the slab and paths go down, or retrofitted around the perimeter of an existing home. How often a system needs refilling depends on the product used and the manufacturer's instructions, so we check your durable notice and system details before quoting. For new homes, see our pre construction termite solutions; for other options such as chemical soil barriers and baiting, see termite barriers and protection. Not sure what your home has?

Questions we get asked
What is a termite reticulation system?
It is a network of perforated pipes laid in the soil around and under the edges of a building. Termiticide is pumped through the pipes to create a treated zone that termites cannot cross undetected.
Because the pipes stay in the ground, the system can be refilled rather than dug up and replaced.
How often does a reticulation system need refilling?
It depends on the termiticide used and the manufacturer's instructions, usually every few years. Your durable notice, often in the meter box, records what was used and when.
Send us a photo of the notice and we can tell you whether a refill is due.
Can a reticulation system be installed in an existing home?
Yes. Pipes can be retrofitted around the perimeter of an existing home, depending on access, paving and the construction type.
We inspect the property first and tell you honestly whether reticulation, a chemical soil barrier or baiting suits it best.
How much does a termite reticulation system cost?
It depends on the size of the home, the perimeter length, access and whether it is a new build or a retrofit, so we quote after seeing the property or the plans.
Refills of existing systems are usually much cheaper than a new installation. Request a free quote and we will call you back within 15 minutes.
Do you service systems installed by someone else?
In most cases, yes. We check the injection points, the system details on your durable notice and the condition of the treated zone before refilling.
If the existing system cannot be refilled properly, we will explain the options.
