Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants can recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility for termite ingress via untreated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your dwelling by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they were attacking. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also 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 white ant activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

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 catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Ecologically friendly
