Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites may also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because the termites can’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The most used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from homes 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 termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this way, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
