Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites may recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites may also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

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

The most widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the residence by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this manner, the entire colony may be eliminated even though the location of the colony is unknown. 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 utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the building design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
