Chemical Solutions 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 locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites will recognise these gaps and could potentially get in.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites in the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

The entire colony may be destroyed in this way, 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 white ant 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 especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
