Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations are reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access via them once again.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the wood that they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building can make it challenging to have effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
