A soil chemical barrier is the most important and common way to control termites; fast and on-site detection methods are significant tools to verify pesticide content meeting the standard requirements. In this study, conventional and enhanced immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) containing two test lines (TLs) were developed to semi-quantitatively detect imidacloprid in soil chemical barrier, and detection results were quantified by a smart phone. According to the results, the disappearance concentrations of first TL (TL-1) and second TL (TL-2) in an enhanced ICA and conventional ICA were 5 and 20 ng/mL and 20 and 80 ng/mL with the naked eye. The sensitivity of TL-2 was four times that of TL-1 in both ICAs, consistent with the maximum and minimum concentration differences for imidacloprid in Jiangsu province’s “the technical regulation of assay and evaluation on chemical soil barrier of termite prevention treatment in buildings”. The results of TLs can be used to judge whether the amount of imidacloprid in soil chemical barrier meets the standard. Enhanced and conventional ICAs were available for further quantitative testing with a smart phone, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.74 and 3.17 ng/mL, respectively. Moreover, some soil chemical barrier samples from several areas in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, were used to test by ICAs and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the results of ICAs correlated well with HPLC.
