Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated because of access issues, the termites may identify those gaps and attain access through those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they will not avoid the treated areas. Because of this, termites will move through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual termites will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is reduced.

The most often used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the residence design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Baiting System Advantages

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Eco-friendly

How You Can Identify If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

Several signs that you could have a termite problem include:

• Minute holes in drywall and timber
• Wood is damaged or decaying
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the house
• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the termite colony

Can Termites Badly Damage My Home?

If left untreated, even just one colony of white ants are capable of doing a surprising amount of damage. The house can even become unusable because of the severity of the problem, and in the extreme, may even be unrepairable.
