Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain entry.

The often widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and they do not stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, white ants move over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual termites will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to erradicate termites from the structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not influenced by weather
