Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

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

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after exposure to them. In addition, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

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

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures that they were infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony can be exterminated in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Unimpacted by weather
• No danger to kids or pets

How Destructive Can Termites Be?
