Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor locations cannot be treated because of access issues, the white ants will detect the breaks and attain ingress through those areas.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated areas, the possibility of termite ingress through untreated gaps is much lower.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of as many as eight years following treatment.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites from your house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a flow on result.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home makes it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
