Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or areas can not be treated because of access issues, the white ants may identify those gaps and attain access through them.

The most widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

Since termites cannot identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much reduced.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your structure by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they were 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 colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this way, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar way, but they’re frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection against termites
• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Ecologically Smart
