Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

The often frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites do not identify non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your home by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they are eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

The entire nest can be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should 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 manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a home will make it challenging to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting
