Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor places can not be treated due to access issues, then termites may detect the breaks and attain ingress through them.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

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

An entire nest may be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the nest 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 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 especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger to kids & pets
• An environmentally smart solution

The Signs Of Termite Infestation

General signs that your structure has a termite infestation:

• Minute holes in the drywall or timber
• Wood is decaying or damaged
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Obvious termite colonys & mounds in trees close to the house
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming around the nest
