Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures they have been eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be exterminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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.

In Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
