Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise these gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Since termites don’t identify non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

The entire nest may be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

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