Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some places can not be treated because of access problems, the white ants will identify those gaps and attain ingress through those areas.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

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

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be erradicated, even though 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 often installed around 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 detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
