Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated places are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect these gaps and again access the house.

The often commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

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

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the home by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they were attacking. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this fashion, the whole nest can be eliminated even though the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

An In Ground System is used in a similar manner, but they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.
