Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites may identify the gaps and can sometimes get in.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellents, they will not recognise untreated and treated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they are eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
