Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can sense these breaks and once again access the building.

The regularly commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

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

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been infesting until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

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 colony can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

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

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger to children or pets
• Eco friendly
