Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection in treated locations. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated areas, the possibility of termite access via non-treated gaps is lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

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

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

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