Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated places are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can detect the breaks and once again access the property.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding effect.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger for the kids & pets
• Ecologically Smart
