Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some places cannot be treated as a result of access difficulties, then termites may detect those breaks and attain ingress through them.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants go over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the potential of termite ingress via non-treated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites in the home, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
