Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor places can’t be treated because of access difficulties, the white ants can identify those breaks and gain access through them.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the chance for termite ingress via non-treated gaps is much lower.

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

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

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in locations where there is termite activity.

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 especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
