Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify the gaps and gain entry.

The regularly commonly applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will also transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

Since the termites can’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is often used to eliminate termites in the property, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, creating a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be exterminated, even though you do not 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.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar way, but they’re frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
