Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor areas cannot be treated due to access issues, the termites will detect the gaps and attain access through those areas.

The regularly commonly used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

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

Since the termites don’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access through breaks.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a compounding effect.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

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