Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites will recognise these gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Eco-friendly
