Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some places cannot be treated due to access problems, the termites will detect the breaks and gain ingress via them.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the treated areas. Because of this, white ants move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through breaks.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites from the home, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a flow on effect.

In this manner, the entire nest can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
