Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a flow on effect.

An entire nest may be destroyed in this way, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a swelling can make it difficult to install adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
