Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated areas. However, if the treated places are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can detect these breaks and once again access the house.

The regularly commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants can often transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

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

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were eating previously. 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 further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
