Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover these gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may also pass these chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

Since termites do not identify non-repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire colony may be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, but they are usually situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
