Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify these gaps and can sometimes get in.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they will not avoid the chemical. Because of this, white ants go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual insects will pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as eight years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a flow on result.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
