Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great 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, termites will identify these gaps and could sometimes get in.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the chance for termite access via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this fashion, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically situated throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the dwelling design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.
