Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s 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 recognise the gaps and gain access.

The often widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Environmentally friendly

Signs That You May Have Termites

Here are the common signs you have termites:

• Wood in the building has holes
• Wood that is damaged and disintegrating
• Evidence of mud tubes on brickwork, wood, ceiling or subfloor
• Mounds or colonys can be found in nearby trees
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?

When left untreated, even a single nest of termites can do a surprising amount of destruction. The structure can even become unsafe due to the severity of the problem, and in extreme cases, can even be irreparable.
