Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

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

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Environmentally friendly

Common Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

There are many signs your dwelling suffers from a termite infestation:

• Wood in the home has holes
• Wood that is damaged and breaking down
• Evidence of mud tubes on brickwork, wood, ceiling and/or subfloor
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees close to the structure
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the termite nest

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

If left untreated, even just one colony of termites is capable of doing a surprising amount of damage. The house may even become unlivable because of the severity of the problem, and in extreme cases, may even be unrepairable.
