Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain entry.

The most commonly applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated places, the possibility of termite ingress via untreated gaps is much lower.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in places where there is termite activity.

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

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Do?
