Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or locations can not be treated due to access problems, then white ants will detect the breaks and attain access through them.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

The most common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a swelling makes it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
