Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can sense the gaps and once again access the property.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the chance of termite access via non-treated gaps is lower.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the structure by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, but they are frequently situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for all the family including pets
