Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated areas. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access through them once again.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar way, but they are usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Not affected by weather conditions
