Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and gain access through them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a commonly used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites can often transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated locations, the chance for termite access through non-treated gaps is lower.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than 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 entire termite nest will be erradicated, even when 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 way, however they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
