Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants will often pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

Since termites cannot identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a flow on result.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
