Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide good protection for treated locations. If not all areas are reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and get access via them.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites do not identify non-repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of up to eight years after application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

The entire colony can be eliminated in this manner, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a building will make it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe for all the family & pets
