Repelling Chemicals
Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants may identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.
The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as 5 years after application.
Non-Repelling Chemicals
Non repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they don’t avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will pass over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual insects pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a flow on result.
Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.
The regularly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.
Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding result.
In this fashion, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.
In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar manner, but they are usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
