Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites can recognise the gaps and could potentially get in.

The often widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

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

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

The entire colony may be eradicated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

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 house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System
