Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect the gaps and once again access the home.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore causing a flow on result.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is much less likely.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to eliminate termites from the residence, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on result.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a house will make it hard to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
