Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will often transfer these chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites do not detect non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

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

Baiting System Benefits

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger for youngsters & pets
• Eco-friendly
