Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access through them.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be exterminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house makes it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
