Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can detect these breaks and access the home.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Because termites cannot detect non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a house, 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 wood they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire nest can be eliminated even though the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they’re frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.
