Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can identify these gaps and again access the home.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites will often pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Since the termites don’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access via gaps.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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 feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
