Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of as many as five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they identify no difference between areas that are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding effect.

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even when the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement 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 invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
