Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can detect these breaks and access the building.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and those 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 as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a home by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

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

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

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Unimpacted by weather
• No danger for youngsters & pets
