Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may identify the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The regularly commonly applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

An entire nest can be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System
