Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can identify the gaps and can sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, even if 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 employed in a similar way, however they’re usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.
