Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

The regularly widely used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the building design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
