Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

As termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the wood that they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

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

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar manner, but they are generally installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not affected by weather
• No danger to kids or pets
