Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites do not identify non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is limited.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is commonly used to get rid of termites from the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on result.

The entire nest may be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a swelling will make it difficult to install adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
