Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and they do not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants move through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual insects will pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

The most widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Environmentally friendly
