Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants can identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

The regularly widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will also pass these chemicals on to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

Because the termites can not detect these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the building by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
