Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites do not identify non-repellents, they will not recognise untreated and treated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The commonly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as eight years following treatment.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a home by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for youngsters and pets
