Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor areas can’t be treated as a result of access difficulties, the white ants may detect those gaps and gain access via those areas.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the possibility for termite access through non-treated gaps is lower.

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, with 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 encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on result.

In this fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the position of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages
