Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection on treated places. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can identify these breaks and again access the house.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they will not stay away from the treated areas. Because of this, termites will move over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated areas, the chance for termite access via non-treated gaps is far lower.

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood they were infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house can make it challenging to have adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
