Termite Removal & Management

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated areas. If not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and get access via them once again.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

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

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the timber they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically installed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
