Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover these gaps and gain access.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the possibility of termite access through untreated gaps is much lower.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

The entire nest can be exterminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.
