Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may identify the gaps and can sometimes get in.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a structure by placing bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

An In Ground System is used in a similar fashion, however they’re frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.

• Not affected by weather
• No danger for the kids & pets
