Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can detect these breaks and again access the house.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they won’t stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, termites pass through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Since termites can not identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is much reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a flow on result.

In this way, the entire nest can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
