Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after contact with them. In addition, termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because termites don’t detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
