Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants may also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites can not identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a house by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even if you do not 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 Systems are used in a similar manner, but they are generally installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger for kids & pets
• Ecologically friendly
