Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection in treated areas. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can recognise the gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they won’t avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Since termites can’t identify non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even when 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 Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
