Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can sense these breaks and once again access the property.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they don’t stay away from the chemical. Because of this, termites will go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual insects will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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 Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

How To Identify If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

• Holes in timber panels or drywall
• Damaged or disintegrating wood
• The presence of mud tubes on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the structure
• Mounds or colonys can be seen in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the termite colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?
