Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and they won’t steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants move through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain access via gaps.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a residence by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

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

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar manner, but they are usually placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting
