Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect these breaks and once again access the home.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the chance of termite access through non-treated gaps is far lower.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be exterminated, even when 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.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• Ecologically Smart
