Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise these gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants can also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Since the termites do not detect non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as 8 years after treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to get rid of termites in the dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a flow on effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be erradicated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems can 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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger for kids & pets
