Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites cannot identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is a lot less likely.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is frequently used to erradicate termites from your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.
