Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some places cannot be treated due to access issues, the termites can identify those gaps and attain access through them.

The often commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they do not steer clear of the treated areas. Because of this, termites will pass over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood they were infesting up to now. 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 other colony members.

In this manner, the whole nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems can 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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
