Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify these breaks and access the property.

The most widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the possibility of termite access through untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

The often used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to 8 years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the residence by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating. This kills those 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.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
