Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor some areas can’t be treated due to access problems, then white ants will detect the gaps and attain access through them.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

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

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is often used to erradicate termites from the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

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