Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them great for protection on treated locations. However, if the treated places are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can sense the gaps and again access the home.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The commonly used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as 8 years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems can 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 important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
