Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated locations. If not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access through them once again.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they will not recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The frequently used non repellent option is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years after application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing 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 termite colony can be exterminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
