Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if 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 can recognise the gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may often pass the chemicals on to other members of the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites don’t detect non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to erradicate termites from your property, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a flow on result.

The entire colony can be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the home design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
