Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can identify the gaps and access the building.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding result.

Since the termites do not detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the timber that they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be exterminated, even if 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.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.
