Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites will identify the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites can also pass these chemicals to other members of the colony, providing a flow on and efficient result.

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

The most widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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 are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a home will make it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
