Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or places can’t be treated as a result of access difficulties, the white ants can identify the gaps and attain ingress via those areas.

The often widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, white ants will go through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a flow on effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The commonly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this way, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

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 particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
