Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas are reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access via them.

The regularly widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they will not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites move over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual termites will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites can not identify non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The most common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a flow on effect.

In this way, the entire colony may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Eco-friendly

How You Can Tell If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

Here are the common signs you have a termite infestation:

• Holes in the drywall or timber
• Damaged or crumbling wood
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on the timber, floor boards, ceilings, brickwork or in subfloor areas
• Mounds or colonys can be seen in nearby trees
• Winged termites (or alates) can be seen swarming from the colony

How Problematic Can Termites Be?

When left untreated, even a single colony of white ants can do a surprising amount of destruction. The structure can even become unusable because of the severity of the problem, and in extreme cases, can even be irreparable.
