Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or locations cannot be treated due to access problems, the white ants can detect those breaks and attain ingress via those areas.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they do not steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, termites go over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

As termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house makes it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for kids and pets
• Green
