Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after contact with them. In addition, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

A frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be erradicated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar manner, but they’re usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Not influenced by weather conditions
