Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated because of access issues, the termites will identify the breaks and gain access through those areas.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will also pass these chemicals on to other members of the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the possibility for termite access via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a flow on result.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
