Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, so they provide great protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access via them once again.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The most often used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

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

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the building design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
