Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some places can not be treated due to access issues, the termites will identify those breaks and attain ingress through those areas.

The often widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants can also transfer the chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Since the termites do not identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be exterminated, 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 may 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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
