Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can identify the breaks and access the building.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after exposure to them. In addition, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they identify no difference between areas that are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The often used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to 8 years following treatment.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your structure by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be exterminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe to use around children and pets
