Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can detect these breaks and again access the house.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they do not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, termites will pass through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

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

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the structures they have been eating previously. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the residence design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Environmentally friendly
