Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will often transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Because the termites can not identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain access via gaps.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire nest can be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around children and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
