Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, they provide great protection in treated locations. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and get access via them once again.

The regularly frequently utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The often common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a flow on effect.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, but they’re frequently installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
