Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years after treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding effect.

In this manner, the whole nest can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, however they’re frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
