Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor areas can not be treated because of access problems, the white ants may identify those breaks and gain ingress through those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

As termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The commonly used non repellent option is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years after application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures that they were eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
