Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

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

The most commonly used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated places to non-treated locations, the potential of termite access through untreated gaps is far lower.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within 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 timber they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be erradicated, even when 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 Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Eco-friendly
