Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or places cannot be treated due to access problems, then termites may detect those gaps and attain ingress via them.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the nest is unknown. 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 are in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a structure will make it tricky to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Not affected by weather
