Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can identify these gaps and once again access the home.

The often frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the chance for termite access via non-treated gaps is lower.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in locations where there is termite 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 particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
