Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

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

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the treated areas. Because of this, white ants will go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual insects pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain access via gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a residual life of as many as eight years after application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your residence by positioning bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

An entire nest may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, however they are frequently situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe to use around kids and pets
