Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

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

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may often transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses 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 white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even if 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 are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.
