Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, they provide excellent protection in treated locations. However, if not all areas can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise the gaps and get access via them.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they will not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites pass through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites don’t detect non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a swelling makes it hard to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
