Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify the gaps and gain access.

The often commonly used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and they don’t steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants will go over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites don’t identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the colony can be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
