Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some places can not be treated due to access problems, then termites may detect those gaps and attain ingress through those areas.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

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

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the potential for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is much lower.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a home by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, 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 can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to children or pets
• Ecologically friendly
