Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated places are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can sense these breaks and once again access the house.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the chance for termite ingress via untreated gaps is lower.

The often common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a home by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
