Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants will identify the gaps and could potentially get in.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they identify no difference between areas that are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were 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 that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, however they are usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.
