Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants will recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The often frequently utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants can often pass the chemicals on to other members of the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a compounding result.

In this fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the location of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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 especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting
