Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated places. However, if the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and access the home.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber that they have been eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

An entire colony may be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
