Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants can often pass these chemicals to other members of the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility for termite ingress via non-treated gaps is far lower.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which produces a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a structure can make it challenging to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
