Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection in treated areas. However, if not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and gain access via them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to erradicate termites from your residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a compounding effect.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar fashion, however they are frequently installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.
