Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise these gaps and can potentially gain access.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The often used non repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to 8 years after treatment.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar way, however they are generally situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.
