Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor areas cannot be treated as a result of access difficulties, then termites will detect the breaks and attain ingress through those areas.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in the property, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the location of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another location.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
