Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Since termites can’t detect non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding effect.

In this fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically situated around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the home design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for kids and pets
• Ecologically sound
