Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can identify the breaks and once again access the house.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years following treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants 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 fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
