Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection on treated places. However, if the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can detect these gaps and again access the home.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they won’t avoid the chemical. Because of this, white ants will go through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much less likely.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding effect.

In this fashion, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger to children or pets
• Environmentally friendly
