Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for protection around treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can detect these gaps and access the house.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a flow on result.

An entire nest may be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly installed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather
• No danger for children & pets
• Eco-friendly
