Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they won’t avoid the treated areas. Because of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a flow on result.

Ongoing 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 sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
