Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or areas can’t be treated as a result of access issues, the termites will identify those breaks and attain access through those areas.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the chance of termite access through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding result.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the house design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
