Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection on treated places. However, if the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can identify these gaps and access the house.

The often frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites don’t detect non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they are attacking. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

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

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

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Environmentally Smart
