Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, they provide good protection for treated locations. If not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access via them once again.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the chance of termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to eliminate termites from your dwelling, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be erradicated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a home makes it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
