Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify the gaps and again access the home.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a compounding result.

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

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is frequently used to get rid of termites in your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding effect.

In this manner, the nest may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
