Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can sense the breaks and once again access the building.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

As termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they identify no difference between areas which are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been eating previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even when 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 used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a swelling makes it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
