Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor locations cannot be treated due to access issues, the white ants will detect the gaps and gain ingress through those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will move over the chemical and die after 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.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated places to non-treated places, the possibility of termite access through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this fashion, the whole nest can be eliminated even though the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
