Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the timber they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this way, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the house design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
