Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or places can’t be treated because of access problems, then termites can identify those gaps and gain ingress via them.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as 5 years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

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

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a swelling can make it tricky to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
