Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor places can not be treated as a result of access issues, the termites will detect the breaks and gain ingress through those areas.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The often used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a flow on result.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are typically installed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the house design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
