Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or places can not be treated as a result of access problems, then termites may detect those breaks and gain access via them.

The regularly frequently utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because termites do not identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent option is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to eight years following application.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

An entire colony can be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger for children & pets
• Environmentally Friendly
