Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise these gaps and could potentially gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most commonly used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a residual life of up to 8 years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are generally situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
