Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location 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 so they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar fashion, but they are generally placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
