Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some locations cannot be treated due to access issues, the termites can identify the gaps and gain access through those areas.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants may also pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, providing a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the wood that they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

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 important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
