Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures they have been infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in places where there is termite 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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest
