Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they move through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

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

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

Various Termite Baiting Systems

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

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a home will make it difficult to have effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Unaffected by weather
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

The Indications Of A Termite Infestation

• Small holes in the drywall or timber
• Wood is damaged and crumbling
• "Mud tubes" appearing on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Obvious termite colonys & mounds in trees close to the structure
• Winged termites (or alates) can be seen swarming from the nest

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites (white ants) is capable of doing a great deal of damage to a building. If the infestation becomes severe enough, your dwelling could potentially become unsafe.
