Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

The often frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will often pass the chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

As termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing 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 return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be erradicated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
