Liquid termiticides traditionally contained repellent insecticides, but non-repellent active ingredients like fipronil have improved treatments by making it harder for termites to detect and avoid treated soil. However, a study by Dr. Thomas Chouvenc reveals that fipronil's faster kill rate may establish a "death zone" that repels termites, potentially affecting treatment efficacy.
