Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can identify the breaks and again access the home.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

As termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding effect.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the colony 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 observed white ant activity.

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 especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
