Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide good protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can identify those gaps and get access via them.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites from the residence, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus causing a flow on effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Environmentally Smart
