Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated locations. If not all locations can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access through them once again.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and they will not avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will go through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites pass the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites do not detect non repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they are attacking. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the position 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 in order that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

• Not impacted by weather
