Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for protection on treated locations. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and once again access the home.

The regularly frequently utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access via breaks.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a house by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire colony may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

In Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
