Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise these gaps and gain access.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore causing a flow on result.

Since termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The often used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as eight years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a structure by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been eating. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole nest can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting
