Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor some locations can not be treated as a result of access difficulties, then termites may detect those gaps and attain ingress through them.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a flow on effect.

Since termites cannot identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is significantly less likely.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a flow on effect.

An entire colony may be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.
