Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

The often commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and they won’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will move through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain access via gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding effect.

In this manner, the nest can be eliminated even when the location of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed 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 location.

In-Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
