Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites can often pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

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

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to get rid of termites from your house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, thus causing a compounding effect.

In this manner, the entire colony may be eliminated even though the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
