Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can sense the gaps and once again access the home.

The most widely utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to erradicate termites in your dwelling, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, creating a flow on result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in places where there is termite activity.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar fashion, but they’re generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for children and pets
