Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor some areas can’t be treated because of access problems, then termites will detect the breaks and gain access via those areas.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is not known.

An In Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, however they’re frequently installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.
