Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect these breaks and once again access the property.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

Because termites do not detect non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
