Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can sense these gaps and again access the building.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and people 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 of up to eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding effect.

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

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

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger for children & pets
