Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can sense these gaps and again access the building.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they won’t avoid the chemical. Because of this, white ants will pass over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The most applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the timber that they were infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a building can make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
