Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants may recognise these gaps and could sometimes get in.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

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

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a compounding effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the residence design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Baiting System Advantages
