Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or some locations cannot be treated due to access issues, the termites will identify those breaks and gain ingress through those areas.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and people which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

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

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a house can make it difficult to install adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all the family & pets
• Eco-friendly
