Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and gain access.

The often frequently utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites don’t identify non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures they have been infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

An In Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, however they are frequently situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.
