Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor areas can not be treated as a result of access problems, the termites can detect those gaps and gain ingress via those areas.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, white ants go through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated locations, the potential of termite ingress through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

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