Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide great protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access through them.

The regularly frequently applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the structures that they were infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

An entire nest can be eradicated in this way, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around 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 intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Ecologically Smart
