Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise the gaps and could potentially gain access.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites will also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

Since the termites can’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain access through gaps.

The most common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding result.

An entire nest may be destroyed in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the nest 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 observed white ant activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly situated around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the dwelling design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
