Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites may identify the gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a residual life of up to eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on effect.

An entire nest may be exterminated in this manner, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Impervious to weather conditions
