Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, so they provide great protection in treated locations. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they do not stay away from the chemical. Because of this, white ants move over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated areas, the possibility of termite ingress through non-treated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the dwelling by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a swelling will make it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
