Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated locations, the chance for termite access through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is commonly used to erradicate termites in the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on result.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a building can make it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
