Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide good protection in treated areas. If not all locations are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

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

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures they were eating previously. 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.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically situated around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the structure design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.
