Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, they provide good protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access through them once again.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of as many as 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and so they will not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites pass over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a flow on result.

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 reduced.

The most applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning 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 feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the position of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a building makes it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger to kids or pets
