Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection in treated locations. If not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access via them.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites cannot identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a residual life of up to 8 years after application.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to erradicate termites in the dwelling, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
