Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites can identify these gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites will also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the chance for termite access via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be exterminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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