Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some locations can’t be treated as a result of access difficulties, then termites may detect the gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your dwelling by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been attacking. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this way, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar fashion, but they’re usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection against termites
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Environmentally smart

How To Tell If Your Property Is Infested With Termites

General signs that your property is infested with termites:

• Holes in the drywall or wood
• Wood that is damaged and disintegrating
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on brickwork, wood, ceiling and subfloor
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?
