Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on effect.

In this fashion, the whole nest may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a swelling will make it challenging to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
