Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites will also pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Since termites can’t detect non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much reduced.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the timber that they were eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

An entire colony can be destroyed in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a swelling will make it challenging to have effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for all your family including pets
• An environmentally smart solution
