Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can sense the gaps and access the building.

The often widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they move through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to eliminate termites in your property, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

The entire nest can be eliminated in this manner, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a swelling can make it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
