Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may identify the gaps and could potentially get in.

The regularly commonly utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants may also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much less likely.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be erradicated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. 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 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 particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Eco-friendly

• Tiny holes found in drywall or wood
• Damaged or crumbling wood
• The presence of "mud tubes" on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the dwelling
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Winged termites or alates can be noticed swarming from the nest

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?
