Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some places can not be treated as a result of access problems, the termites may identify those gaps and gain ingress through those areas.

The often frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and so they do not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, termites will move through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the potential of termite access via non-treated gaps is lower.

The most often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years following treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a residence by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they were eating. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

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 white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Eco-friendly
