Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures 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.

The entire colony can be destroyed in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
