Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some locations can not be treated because of access issues, the white ants will identify the breaks and attain access through those areas.

The most commonly utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated areas, the possibility of termite ingress via non-treated gaps is lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from homes 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 white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, but they’re frequently situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Ecologically Friendly
