Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites can recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they don’t avoid the chemical. Because of this, white ants go over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites do not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

The often used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a building makes it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
