Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, they provide good protection in treated locations. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access via them once again.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the potential for termite access via non-treated gaps is much lower.

The most common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a compounding effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically placed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the building design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.

• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe for children and pets
