Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some places can not be treated due to access problems, the termites will detect the gaps and gain ingress through those areas.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

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

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this fashion, the whole colony can be eliminated even when the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are more commonly placed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
