Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated locations. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

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

Because the termites don’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a compounding effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this way, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

In-Ground Systems can 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 catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Eco-friendly
