Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify the gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since termites can not identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The most commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as eight years after application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the structure by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the colony 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 they are in positions where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the building design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
