Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can identify the gaps and once again access the home.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in locations where there is termite activity.

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 particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe for the kids and pets
