Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor locations can’t be treated because of access difficulties, the white ants can identify those breaks and gain ingress through them.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated places, the chance for termite access via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a residence by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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