Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated areas. If not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access via them once again.

The often frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can pass these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated locations, the chance of termite ingress through untreated gaps is lower.

The most widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a building makes it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
