Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites can recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites can’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as eight years after treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even though 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.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are typically situated throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the building design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible protection systems
• Impervious to weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Environmentally Smart

Common Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Several signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Small holes in the drywall and/or wood
• Wood that is damaged and collapsing
• Evidence of mud tubes on brickwork, wood, ceiling and/or sub floor
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest
