Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants can identify the gaps and could potentially get in.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated places to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures they were eating up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony may be eradicated in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, however they are usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
