Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain entry.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the potential for termite access via untreated gaps is lower.

The most frequently used non repellent option is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were attacking. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this manner, the entire nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a structure can make it difficult to have effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for kids and pets
• Environmentally friendly
