Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can sense the breaks and access the building.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the potential for termite access through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years after application.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to get rid of termites from your structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

An entire colony may be exterminated in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, however they’re frequently situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
