Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide good protection in treated areas. If not all locations are treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and get access via them.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the possibility for termite ingress via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the dwelling design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.
