Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can sense the gaps and once again access the house.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

As termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a dwelling by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they were attacking. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

The entire nest may 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 needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed 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 especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe for children and pets
• Eco-friendly
