Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or some areas can’t be treated due to access issues, the termites will identify those gaps and gain ingress through them.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated places, the chance of termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

The commonly used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years after treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be 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 white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire colony can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar fashion, but they’re generally installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
