Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can sense the breaks and once again access the home.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain access through breaks.

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which creates a flow on result.

In this way, the whole nest can be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. 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 to another place.

An In Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, but they are usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.
