Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some areas can not be treated due to access issues, then termites may detect the breaks and attain ingress through those areas.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they don’t stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants will pass through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since termites can not identify non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The most commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as 8 years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a home by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
