Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor areas can not be treated due to access issues, then white ants can detect those breaks and attain ingress through them.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the potential for termite access through untreated gaps is far lower.

The most often used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the structure by placing bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this manner, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the location of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the building design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
