Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise the gaps and can potentially get in.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites cannot identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much less likely.

The commonly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of up to eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a home by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are typically situated around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the home design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
