Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated locations. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and get access via them.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since 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, providing a flow on and efficient result.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
