Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor places can’t be treated as a result of access issues, then termites can identify those breaks and gain ingress via them.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites will pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated places, the chance for termite access via non-treated gaps is lower.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a compounding result.

In this manner, the entire nest may be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar fashion, but they’re generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.
