Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided, they provide great protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and get access via them.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the chance of termite access via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a home by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they are attacking. This soon kills those 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 nest members.

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

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