Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

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

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, individual termites will pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Since the termites can’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The commonly used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a residual life of as many as 8 years after application.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your dwelling by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

The entire nest may be eradicated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically situated around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the house design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Baiting System Benefits

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Eco-friendly

Common Indications You Have A Termite Infestation

Here are the telltale signs of a termite infestation:

• Little holes found in drywall and/or wood
• Damaged or crumbling timber
• Presence of mud tubes on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the colony

How Destructive Are Termites?

If left untreated, even a single nest of white ants is capable of doing an unexpected amount of destruction. The building may even become unusable due to the severity of the issue, and in the extreme, can be irreparable.
