Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify the gaps and could sometimes get in.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the possibility of termite access through non-treated gaps is lower.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is commonly used to get rid of termites in your house, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire nest may be eliminated even when the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are typically installed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.
