Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide great protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can identify the gaps and get access via them once again.

The most commonly utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites may also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is frequently used to erradicate termites from your property, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the timber. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.
