Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can sense the gaps and access the house.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after contact with them. Additionally, termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the possibility of termite ingress via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which produces a flow on effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a swelling can make it challenging to have effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
