Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer these chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

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

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the building design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against termites
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger for youngsters & pets
