Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain entry.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated areas, the chance of termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be erradicated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar manner, but they are frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger to kids & pets
• Eco-friendly

How You Can Determine If Your House Is Infested With Termites

• Tiny holes in the drywall and timber
• Damaged or crumbling timber
• "Mud tubes" appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees close to the house
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying to and from the colony

What Damage Can Termites Cause?
