Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants can recognise these gaps and can sometimes get in.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

Because termites cannot identify non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much less likely.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this manner, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
