Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The often frequently applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and they do not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual termites pass the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites can not detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access via breaks.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Environmentally friendly
