Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Since the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to get rid of termites in your property, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar way, however they’re frequently situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Environmentally friendly
