Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites will identify the gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is a commonly used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they don’t steer clear of the treated areas. Because of this, termites will move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access through gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

In this way, the nest may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar manner, however they’re generally installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for all your family & pets
