Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and gain entry.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated areas, the potential for termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

The most often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of as many as eight years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can 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 rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even when 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 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 stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
