Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some places can’t be treated due to access difficulties, the termites may identify the breaks and gain access through those areas.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

As termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the structures they were infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

The entire nest may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether 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 white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a structure can make it difficult to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Green
