Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated locations. If not all areas are reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access through them.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will often transfer the chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the possibility of termite ingress via non-treated gaps is lower.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were eating up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems
