Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants will identify the gaps and could sometimes get in.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and they do not steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will move over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning 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.

The entire colony can be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, but they’re generally placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. These systems are useful when the construction of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.
