Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor some areas cannot be treated due to access issues, then termites may identify the breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

The regularly widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

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

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than 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.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• Ecologically Smart

The Signs Of Termite Infestation

Several signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Timber in the dwelling has holes
• Timber is decaying or damaged
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, wood, ceiling and/or sub floor
• Trees in the area show signs of nests & mounds
• Swarms of alates flying from the colony
