Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for protection on treated locations. However, if the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can identify these breaks and again access the property.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much less likely.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be exterminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Environmentally friendly
