Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated locations. If not all locations are reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access through them.

The regularly commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a compounding result.

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

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.
