Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will move over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated locations, the possibility for termite access via untreated gaps is much lower.

The often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are often used to erradicate termites from the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even when 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.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
