Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor places can’t be treated because of access problems, then termites will detect those gaps and attain access through those areas.

The regularly commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

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

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been attacking. This kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in places 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 stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger to kids & pets
