Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can identify these gaps and access the property.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites do not detect non repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is commonly used to eliminate termites from your structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a compounding effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
