Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection in treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise those gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have contact with them. In addition, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no difference between areas that are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, but they are generally installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the design of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Not impacted by weather
