Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good 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 treated, white ants can identify the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and people which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The commonly used non repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to erradicate termites from your residence, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar way, however they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
