Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The often commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The often common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the home by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
