Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor some locations can not be treated as a result of access problems, the white ants will identify those gaps and attain ingress through them.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites will often pass the chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Because the termites do not detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is reduced.

The most widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures that they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this way, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are typically placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the home design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
