Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise the gaps and gain access.

The often frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and they will not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites pass through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual insects pass the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

The often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your house by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they were eating. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

The entire nest can be eliminated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the nest 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 white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the design of a building will make it difficult to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger for kids & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
