Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites can identify these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and so they will not steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, termites will move over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite access through untreated gaps is far lower.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this way, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly installed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
