Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or locations cannot be treated due to access issues, the termites may detect those breaks and gain ingress via them.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may also pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood that they have been infesting 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 then feed that bait to other colony members.

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

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, but they’re generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
