Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants can often transfer the chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites are not able to identify 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 often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are typically installed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the dwelling design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.
