Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect these gaps and access the home.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated locations, the possibility for termite ingress via non-treated gaps is much lower.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be exterminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. 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.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar manner, however they’re generally installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.
