Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding effect.

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

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as 8 years after application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing 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 termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this manner, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection against termites
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for children and pets
• Ecologically Friendly

How You Can Tell If Your House Is Infested With Termites

Here are some common signs that you have a termite infestation:

• Small holes bored in timber panels or drywall
• Wood is crumbling or damaged
• Presence of mud tubes on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees close to the home
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the colony

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites can do significant amounts of damage to a building. If the infestation becomes bad enough, the structure could potentially become unlivable.
