Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify these gaps and access the home.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will often transfer these chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because the termites can’t identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

The most used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to erradicate termites from your residence, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, thus causing a compounding effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

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 building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
