Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access via them.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

The most commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat has a residual life of up to eight years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the wood that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be exterminated, even if 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 generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
