Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated locations. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can detect these breaks and access the home.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will often pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a compounding and efficient effect.

Since termites do not detect non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is limited.

The commonly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years following application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently 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 instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus creating a compounding result.

The entire nest may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed 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 help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a home will make it hard to have effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
