Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection on treated places. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can detect the breaks and again access the house.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and so they don’t stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants pass through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites do not detect non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a flow on effect.

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

In Ground Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
