Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor locations can not be treated as a result of access problems, the termites can detect the gaps and gain access through them.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning 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.

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

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a swelling makes it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
