Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they will not stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, termites move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Since 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 a lot reduced.

The frequently used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is frequently used to get rid of termites in your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, causing a compounding result.

An entire colony can be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite 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 particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Unaffected by weather
