Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated places. However, if the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify these breaks and once again access the house.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

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

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even though you don’t 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 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 especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
