Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated places are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can identify the gaps and again access the building.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites cannot detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites in your home, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a flow on result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a home makes it tricky to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
