Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some areas can’t be treated due to access difficulties, the white ants can detect those breaks and gain ingress via them.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical available today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites may often transfer these chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

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

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

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

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar manner, but they’re usually situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not impacted by weather
• Safe to use around kids and pets

How Destructive Can Termites Be?
