Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, they provide great protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access through them.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites can also pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the potential of termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

The commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as eight years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

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