Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite access through non-treated gaps is lower.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as eight years following application.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

The entire colony can be eliminated in this manner, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
