Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures they have been eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony can be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should 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 are employed in a similar fashion, but they are frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger to children or pets
