Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify the breaks and again access the home.

The often widely used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they will not avoid the treated areas. Because of this, termites will move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the chance for termite ingress through untreated gaps is much lower.

The often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites in your residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a compounding result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a structure will make it difficult to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
