Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. 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.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they don’t steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a flow on effect.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites in the property, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in places where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, but they are frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. These systems are 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

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to children or pets
• Ecologically Friendly

The Indications Of A Termite Infestation

There are various signs your dwelling has a termite infestation:

• Minute holes in the drywall and/or timber
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• The presence of mud tubes on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the structure
• Colonys or mounds in trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?

It surprises many people to learn that white ants can cause a significant amount of damage to structures. In fact, just one nest of termites can render a dwelling unusable if the problem is severe enough. Set your mind at ease; call Wilberforce Termite Pest Control and have one of our termite control specialists inspect your Wilberforce house as soon as possible.
