There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

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

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your house by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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