Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide excellent protection in treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access through them once again.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after exposure to them. Additionally, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

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

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a residence by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this manner, the entire colony can be eliminated even though the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a home will make it tricky to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
