Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a commonly used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will often transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the chance of termite ingress via untreated gaps is far lower.

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the structures they were eating up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even though you do not 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 utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a building will make it challenging to install effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
