Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection for treated locations. If not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access through them.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites can’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access via gaps.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the nest can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

An In-Ground System is used in a similar manner, but they are usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
