Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a residence by placing bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this fashion, the entire colony can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they’re frequently installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.
