Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access.

The often commonly utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated areas, the chance for termite ingress via untreated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the structures that they have been infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, however they are usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.
