Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide good protection for treated areas. However, if not all locations are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites can’t identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is a lot reduced.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing 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 termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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 generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
