Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may recognise these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as eight years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a dwelling by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building can make it hard to install effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
