Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise these gaps and gain access.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the potential for termite ingress through untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of up to eight years after treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the dwelling by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

The entire colony can be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, however they are generally placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
