Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated places. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and access the building.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants may often pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated areas, the potential of termite ingress through non-treated gaps is lower.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by placing 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 return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire nest may be eliminated in this manner, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a swelling makes it challenging to install adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger for children & pets
