Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may often pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

An In-Ground System is used in a similar fashion, however they’re generally placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
