Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection in treated areas. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access through them.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t detect non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

An In Ground System is used in a similar fashion, however they are usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
