Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided, they provide excellent protection for treated areas. If not all locations are reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access via them.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, termites will pass through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Since termites don’t detect non-repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of as many as eight years following treatment.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding result.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even when you do not 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 may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
