Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated places are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can identify these breaks and once again access the property.

The often commonly utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a compounding result.

Because termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and those 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 has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites from the residence, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a swelling will make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
