Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants can identify these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the chemical. Because of this, white ants go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is much reduced.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are typically installed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the building design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.
