Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can identify these gaps and once again access the property.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the potential for termite ingress through untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

The regularly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites 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 way, even in cases 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 in order that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, but they are generally situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• Ecologically Friendly

The Telltale Indications Of A Termite Infestation

• Small holes in the drywall and/or wood
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• Mud Tubes on wood, floor boards, ceilings, brick work and in subfloor areas
• Trees in the area show signs of nests & mounds
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest
