Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated areas. However, if not all locations can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access through them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony can be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are typically situated throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the home design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Baiting System Benefits

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Eco-friendly
