Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection in treated areas. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise the gaps and gain access via them.

The regularly commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites don’t identify non repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated places, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be exterminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
