Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise these gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and they won’t avoid the treated areas. Because of this, termites go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since termites can not identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The most used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even when you don’t 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 are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the design of a structure makes it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
