Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or locations can’t be treated because of access issues, the white ants may identify those breaks and attain ingress via them.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will pass these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain access via gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to eliminate termites in the property, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on result.

An entire nest may be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the residence design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
