Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can sense the gaps and access the property.

The often commonly utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

Because the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated places, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites from your structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

In this fashion, the nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another location.

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