This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In Bangor, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ advantages that shouldn’t be dismissed.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can sense the gaps and again access the building.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses 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.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Environmentally Smart
