Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can detect the breaks and again access the building.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. In addition, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

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

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony can be eliminated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should 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 utilised in a similar way, but they are frequently installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
