Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some places can’t be treated as a result of access issues, the white ants can identify the gaps and gain access via those areas.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after exposure to them. In addition, termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is commonly used to eliminate termites in the home, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

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

Baiting System Advantages

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for children and pets
• Ecologically smart

• Damaged or crumbling wood
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the dwelling
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
