Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor areas cannot be treated due to access problems, the white ants may detect those gaps and attain ingress via those areas.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will pass these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a flow on effect.

In this way, the colony can be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
