Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide good protection for treated locations. If not all areas are reached, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access via them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is a lot reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a building by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they are attacking. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar manner, however they are generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System
