Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access via them.

The most commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and they won’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, white ants move over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as 8 years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures they have been 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 that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even if you don’t 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.

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar manner, but they’re usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
