Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can sense the breaks and once again access the home.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they won’t stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, termites go through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain access through breaks.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the structure by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
