Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection around treated places. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect the gaps and access the home.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as 5 years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer the chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

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

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the building by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are eating. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be exterminated, even though you don’t 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.

An In Ground System is used in a similar way, but they are generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.
