Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites can identify these gaps and can sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Since termites cannot detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

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

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the building by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they are attacking. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a home can make it challenging to have adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
