Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of as many as 5 years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they do not stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, termites pass over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites can not identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to erradicate termites from the property, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a flow on result.

The entire colony can be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar way, but they’re generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.
