Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after contact with them. In addition, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the chance of termite ingress via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

The commonly used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire colony can be exterminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the colony 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 white ant activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
