Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for providing protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can identify the breaks and once again access the house.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the chance for termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the structures that they have been eating until now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is not 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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
