Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and gain ingress.

The most frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole nest can be eliminated even though the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home can make it challenging to install effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
