Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Because the termites can’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the structures that they have been eating previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be exterminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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 white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house can make it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
