Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain entry.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated places, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your structure by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been attacking. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

The entire nest may be exterminated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar manner, but they are generally placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets
• Eco-friendly

How You Can Identify If Your Property Is Infested With Termites

Here are the common signs of a termite infestation:

• Holes in the drywall or wood
• Wood is disintegrating or damaged
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Nests or mounds below trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

Can A Colony Of Termites Damage My Home?

It surprises many homeowners to learn that white ants can do a great deal of damage to buildings. In fact, a single colony of termites can render a home unsafe if the problem is severe enough.
