Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some places cannot be treated due to access difficulties, then termites can detect those gaps and gain ingress through them.

The often frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they don’t stay away from the treated areas. Because of this, termites pass over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since termites don’t identify non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to 8 years following application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to get rid of termites in the home, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a flow on result.

The entire colony may be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Systems may 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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
