Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and once again access the building.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they go through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will often transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

As termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on result.

In this fashion, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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.
