Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some places cannot be treated due to access problems, the termites can identify those breaks and attain access via them.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and they will not stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, termites pass over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no difference between areas that are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites in the residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for youngsters and pets
