Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great 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 covered, termites can identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will often transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

An entire nest may be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not impacted by weather
