Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some areas can not be treated as a result of access issues, the termites may detect the breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because the termites can not identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain access via breaks.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in places where there is termite activity.

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

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger for the kids & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
