Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some places cannot be treated as a result of access issues, the termites will detect the gaps and gain ingress via those areas.

The most widely utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Since termites can not identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
