Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

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

Because termites do not identify non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your residence by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been attacking. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this fashion, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement 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 particularly useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all your family including pets
• Eco-friendly
