Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated areas. If not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access through them.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the chemical. Because of this, white ants go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual termites pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole colony can be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System
