Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas which are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding result.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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 discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a structure can make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
