Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most commonly used non repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber that they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar way, however they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
