Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your structure by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been eating. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

An entire colony can be eliminated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a structure can make it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
