Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated places, the chance of termite ingress via untreated gaps is lower.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are often used to erradicate termites from the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

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 detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a structure will make it difficult to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
