Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The often widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they don’t avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites will pass through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Since the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access via breaks.

The most common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning 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 return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be exterminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Ecologically friendly

Common Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

There are several signs your house suffers from a termite infestation:

• Miniscule holes in drywall and timber
• Damaged or decaying wood
• Mud Tubes on the wood, floorboards, ceilings, brick work or in underfloor areas
• Termite nests & mounds in trees close to the house
• Winged termites (or alates) may be noticed swarming from the nest

How Destructive Are Termites?

When left untreated, even a single colony of white ants can do an unexpected amount of damage. The building can even become unsafe as a result of the severity of the problem, and in the extreme, may even be unrepairable.
