Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain ingress.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they do not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual insects pass the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

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

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the wood that they were eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be erradicated, even though 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 usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
