Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites can identify these gaps and can sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites can not detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain access via gaps.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of up to 8 years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures they were 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 then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically placed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the building design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not afflicted with weather
• No danger to children or pets
