Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants will identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of up to five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repellent Chemicals

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

Because termites can’t tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the possibility for termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding result.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in locations where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
