Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide good protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and get access via them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Since termites do not detect non repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

An In Ground System is used in a similar manner, but they are usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection against termites
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for children and pets
• Ecologically smart

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Do?
