Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided. So they provide good protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access via them.

The regularly widely used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites can also pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated places, the chance for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were 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 entire colony may be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another location.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
