Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites can’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which produces a flow on effect.

The entire nest can be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
