Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided. So they provide good protection for treated locations. If not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise those gaps and get access through them once again.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they won’t stay away from the chemical. Because of this, white ants will go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

A whole 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 they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are typically placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the home design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
