Termite Treatment & Protection

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor areas cannot be treated as a result of access problems, then white ants can detect those gaps and attain ingress through those areas.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will also transfer these chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the possibility for termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

The most widely used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the building by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this manner, the colony can be eliminated even though the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a building makes it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger for kids & pets
• Eco-friendly

How To Determine If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

Typical signs that your structure has a termite infestation:

• Timber in the building has holes
• Damaged or collapsing wood
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the building
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Do?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites (white ants) is capable of causing a great deal of damage to a building. If the infestation becomes serious enough, the property may become unlivable.
