Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites will recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The most widely utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a house by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

An entire nest may be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In Ground Systems may 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 stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
