Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can sense the breaks and again access the home.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants may also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

Because the termites do not detect non repellents, they don’t recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most frequently used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to 8 years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures that they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

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

In Ground Systems may 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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
