Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection on treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and once again access the home.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after exposure to them. In addition, termites can pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain access through gaps.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of as many as eight years following treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your structure by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they were attacking. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire nest can be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another location.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
