Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated places are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect these gaps and again access the home.

The regularly commonly used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated places, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a flow on effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
