Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor locations can not be treated due to access problems, then white ants can identify those breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites will often pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, providing a flow on and efficient effect.

Since termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the home 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 soon 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 nest members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even though 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.

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 home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Unaffected by weather
• No danger to kids or pets
• Ecologically Friendly
