Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

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

The regularly widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas which are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this fashion, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, but they are generally situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• No danger to kids or pets
