Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will recognise these gaps and could potentially get in.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

Since termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The regularly applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your home by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been attacking. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this fashion, the whole nest can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a swelling makes it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
