Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites will identify the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The regularly frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t detect non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a flow on result.

The entire nest may be exterminated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
