Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some areas can not be treated because of access problems, then white ants may detect the gaps and attain access through those areas.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites do not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The most often used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as eight years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to eliminate termites in the dwelling, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

An In Ground System is utilised in a similar manner, however they’re frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting
