Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants may recognise these gaps and could potentially gain access.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the chance of termite access via untreated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your building by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the colony can be eliminated even though the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

An In-Ground System is used in a similar way, however they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger to kids & pets
• Environmentally Friendly

How To Identify If Your Property Is Infested With Termites

Here are the telltale signs that you have a termite infestation:

• Holes in timber panels or drywall
• Wood that is damaged and collapsing
• The presence of mud tubes on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the house
• Mounds or colonys can be found in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

If left untreated, even just one nest of termites are capable of doing a surprising amount of destruction. The home can even become unsafe due to the severity of the problem, and in the extreme, can even be unrepairable.
