Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or areas can not be treated as a result of access issues, the white ants may identify those gaps and gain access via them.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is a commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire nest can be destroyed in this way, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for children and pets
• Environmentally sound
