Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor places can not be treated due to access issues, then white ants will identify those breaks and gain access through those areas.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated places, the potential of termite ingress via untreated gaps is much lower.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to 8 years following treatment.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a flow on result.

The entire colony may be exterminated in this manner, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed 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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger for the kids & pets
• Ecologically sound
