Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites can not identify non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this manner, the entire nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally 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.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to kids & pets
• Eco friendly
