Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they don’t stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, termites pass through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to erradicate termites from your dwelling, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a compounding result.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a structure can make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
