Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap 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 entry.

The regularly frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can not identify non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The most common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
