Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can sense these gaps and again access the building.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated areas, the chance of termite access via untreated gaps is far lower.

The most widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than 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.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the design of a structure makes it hard to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for all your family including pets
