Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection around treated areas. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify these breaks and access the property.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can pass these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites can’t identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a house will make it challenging to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
