Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is 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 access.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to get rid of termites in the residence, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be exterminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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 frequently situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the design of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
