Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide good protection in treated locations. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access via them once again.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

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

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been eating up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, but they’re usually placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.
