Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection on treated places. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can sense the breaks and again access the house.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites cannot identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is commonly used to erradicate termites in the structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, creating a flow on result.

An entire colony may be exterminated 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 required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

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