Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by 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.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and people which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses 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 termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar fashion, however they are frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Ecologically Smart
