Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or places cannot be treated as a result of access issues, then termites can detect those breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

The most commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Because the termites can not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The most commonly used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a residual life of up to eight years after application.

Termite Control 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 instead of 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.

An entire colony can be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, however they are usually placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.
