Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise the gaps and could potentially get in.

The often widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they will not steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites will go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since termites cannot identify non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is a lot reduced.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to get rid of termites in your residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the location of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in places where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the building design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.
