Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection on treated places. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect the gaps and once again access the property.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of as many as 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after contact with them. In addition, termites can pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because termites can not identify non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The most commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is frequently used to eliminate termites from your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
