Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some places cannot be treated due to access difficulties, the white ants can identify the breaks and gain ingress through them.

The most widely utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will often pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites don’t identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to eliminate termites from the residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home will make it difficult to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
