Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain entry.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of up to five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and they won’t stay away from the treated areas. Because of this, termites move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the chance for termite access via untreated gaps is lower.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your residence by placing bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

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

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar way, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• No danger for the kids & pets
• An environmentally smart solution

• ‘Mud Tubes’ on timber, floorboards, ceilings, brick work or in subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Winged termites or alates can be seen swarming from the colony
