Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this fashion, the entire nest may be eliminated even when the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a home makes it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
