Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or places can not be treated as a result of access problems, the termites can detect those gaps and gain ingress through those areas.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since termites can’t detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The most used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings 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 termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest 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.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
