Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if 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 may identify these gaps and gain access.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

As termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following application.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Systems can 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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
