Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Since termites do not detect non repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in the structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a flow on result.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be exterminated, even though 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 are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Ecologically smart
