Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain access.

The often widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will also pass these chemicals on to other members of the colony, providing a flow on and efficient effect.

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

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your residence by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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 may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
