Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, if the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can detect the breaks and access the property.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites do not identify non repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is much less likely.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire colony can be eliminated in this manner, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are typically placed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Baiting System Advantages

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Unaffected by weather
• No danger for the kids & pets
• Environmentally friendly
