Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided, they provide excellent protection in treated areas. If not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and get access via them once again.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites may also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

Because the termites do not identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this manner, the entire nest may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a building makes it hard to have effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
