Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants can also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites can’t detect non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses 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 white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even if 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 used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a home will make it challenging to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
