Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against 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 may discover the gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

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

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites from your residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar manner, however they are frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.
