Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites can recognise these gaps and can potentially gain access.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control 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 as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this fashion, the entire nest may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Eco-friendly
