Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

As termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the timber they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be erradicated, even if you don’t 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 Systems are used in a similar manner, but they are usually situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Baiting System Advantages

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Eco-friendly
