Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify these gaps and again access the building.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on effect.

Since termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your dwelling by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been attacking. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

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.
