Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

As termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The often used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years after application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the wood they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this manner, the whole nest can be eliminated even though the location of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar way, they are more commonly situated around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
