Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they won’t stay away from the treated areas. Because of this, termites will go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a residence by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in positions where there is termite 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 particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
