Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain entry.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

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

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

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 particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Unimpacted by weather
• No danger for children & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
