Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain ingress.

The often commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

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

The commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as eight years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in locations 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 detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a swelling can make it tricky to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
