Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites may identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and they will not steer clear of the treated areas. Because of this, termites will move through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual insects transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the timber that they were infesting until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another location.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house can make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
