Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some locations can’t be treated because of access difficulties, the white ants may detect those breaks and attain ingress via those areas.

The regularly widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated places to non-treated locations, the possibility for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a home will make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Unaffected by weather
