Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can recognise the gaps and could sometimes get in.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants can often transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

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

The most common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the entire colony may be eliminated even though the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not affected by weather
• Safe for all your family including pets
