Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection on treated places. However, if the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and once again access the house.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Since the termites can’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access through gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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.

An In Ground System is used in a similar manner, however they’re frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe to use around children and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
