Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some places can’t be treated because of access issues, the white ants will identify those breaks and gain ingress through them.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites may often transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Since the termites don’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire colony can be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Environmentally friendly

• Mounds or colonys can be seen in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony
