Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor some locations cannot be treated due to access problems, the white ants will identify those breaks and gain access through those areas.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the chance of termite access through non-treated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites in the home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites 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 creating a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
