Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated places are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify the gaps and access the building.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants may also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility of termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures that they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a house makes it hard to create adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
