Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection around treated places. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can sense the breaks and again access the building.

The regularly frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The most often used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber that they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a structure can make it difficult to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
