Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can identify these gaps and can sometimes get in.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

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

The often common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

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

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house will make it hard to have effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
