Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or places cannot be treated as a result of access difficulties, then termites will identify the breaks and attain access through those areas.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites can also transfer the chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Since the termites don’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is commonly used to erradicate termites from the property, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the timber. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be exterminated, even though you do not 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 can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Not affected by weather
• No danger to children & pets
