Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise the gaps and gain entry.

The often widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites may also pass the chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Because the termites do not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a home will make it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
