Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect the gaps and again access the home.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Because termites don’t detect non-repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to get rid of termites in your dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a compounding result.

In this way, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the location of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

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