Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some locations can’t be treated as a result of access difficulties, the termites may detect the breaks and attain ingress through them.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Since termites can’t identify non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the wood they were eating previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even if 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 are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a home makes it difficult to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
