Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on result.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your building by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even when 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.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house can make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
