Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain entry.

The regularly commonly used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites may often transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the potential of termite access via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is commonly used to erradicate termites from your dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a compounding effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
