Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection on treated areas. However, if the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect these breaks and access the property.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

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

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were infesting until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
