Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide good protection for treated areas. If not all locations are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants will also pass the chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

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

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the pests to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the colony. 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.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
