Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated places are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect these gaps and once again access the home.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because the termites do not detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the location of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

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