Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will identify the gaps and can sometimes get in.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated places, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the dwelling by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been attacking. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even when 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 are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
