Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can sense the breaks and again access the property.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they won’t avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will move through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

The commonly used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding result.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in locations where there is termite activity.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar way, however they’re usually placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.
