Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided, they provide excellent protection in treated locations. If not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and they will not steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites go through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual insects pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

As termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas that are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were eating previously. 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 fashion, the colony can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

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