Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor areas can not be treated due to access issues, the white ants will identify those breaks and attain access via those areas.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on result.

Since termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The often used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of as many as 8 years after treatment.

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 rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even though the position of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly installed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the structure design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
