Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites may identify these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The most frequently utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants may often pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a flow on and efficient effect.

Since termites can’t identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures they were eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even when 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 can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
