Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

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

The often widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and so they won’t avoid the chemical. As a result of this, termites go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual insects pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated locations, the possibility of termite access via non-treated gaps is far lower.

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from houses 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 eliminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
