Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and again access the property.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will often pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Because the termites can’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through gaps.

The most widely used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the structures they were infesting until now. 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 further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

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