Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can sense these gaps and again access the home.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they don’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites pass through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the potential of termite ingress through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood that they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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 especially important 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 against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger for children & pets
• Environmentally friendly
