Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants may identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the home design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.
