Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect these breaks and once again access the house.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since termites don’t detect non-repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to erradicate termites in the dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, creating a flow on result.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
