Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can identify the gaps and could potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they won’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will go over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding result.

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

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
