Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after they have contact with them. In addition, individual termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t identify non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

The most commonly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as eight years following treatment.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding effect.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the colony is not known. 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 places where there is termite activity.

An In Ground System is utilised in a similar way, but they are usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the design of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for kids and pets
• Ecologically Smart
