Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated places. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can sense the gaps and once again access the building.

The often widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the entire termite colony will be exterminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
