Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or locations can not be treated as a result of access difficulties, then termites may identify the gaps and attain access via those areas.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

Because the termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites from the structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on result.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even when 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.

In Ground Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
