Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided, they provide good protection for treated areas. However, if not all locations can be treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and so they don’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites go over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, however they’re generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Ecologically Smart
