Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain access.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites do not identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Unimpacted by weather
• No danger to children or pets
• Ecologically smart
