Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

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 rather than 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.

The entire nest may be eliminated in this manner, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Green

The Telltale Indications Of Termite Infestation

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

• Timber in the building has holes
• Damaged or crumbling wood
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on the timber, floorboards, ceilings, brickwork and/or in underfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds below trees
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the termite nest

What Damage Can Termites Do?

If left untreated, even a single nest of termites can do a surprising amount of destruction. The building can even become unlivable as a result of the severity of the infestation, and in the extreme, can even be irreparable.
