Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated areas. However, if not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not detect non-repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is reduced.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a flow on effect.

In this way, the colony may be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a home makes it tricky to have effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
