Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can sense the breaks and access the property.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they do not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual insects transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since termites can not identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much reduced.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a compounding effect.

In this way, the nest can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. 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 to another location.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a building can make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
