Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or locations can not be treated due to access issues, the termites may detect those breaks and gain access through those areas.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the chance for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even if you don’t 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.

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar manner, however they’re generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Eco-friendly
