Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify these gaps and can potentially get in.

The most commonly applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they do not stay away from the chemical. Because of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access via possible gaps.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites from your property, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

The entire colony may be eradicated in this manner, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
