Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if 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, white ants may identify the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because termites do not detect non-repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.

The most frequently used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a residual life of as many as eight years after treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
