Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated areas. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can sense these breaks and again access the home.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

As termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas which are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which produces a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the residence design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger for kids & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
