Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because the termites can’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to erradicate termites in your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, creating a compounding result.

In this fashion, the nest may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

An In Ground System is used in a similar fashion, however they’re usually situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.
