Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor areas can not be treated due to access issues, the termites can identify the breaks and attain ingress through them.

The regularly widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites can often transfer these chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite access through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most frequently used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to eight years after application.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber they were eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

The entire nest may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised 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 especially helpful when the layout of a swelling can make it hard to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
