Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, they provide great protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access through them once again.

The most widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and people which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In-Ground Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
