Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify the breaks and once again access the home.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite access through untreated gaps is lower.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures 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 termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire nest can be exterminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

An In-Ground System is used in a similar manner, but they’re generally installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.
