Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants can recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may often transfer the chemicals to other members of the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Since the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they will not recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures 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 white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a home makes it difficult to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
