Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Since termites don’t detect non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites from the structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the timber. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the position of the colony is not known. It is important 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 places where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe to use around kids and pets

• Winged termites (or alates) can be seen swarming from the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Do?
