Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some areas can’t be treated due to access issues, the termites will identify the breaks and gain ingress through those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since termites cannot detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much less likely.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to erradicate termites in the home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a compounding effect.

The entire nest can be destroyed in this manner, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In-Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
