Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect these gaps and access the property.

The most widely used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites do not identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as 8 years after treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites in your property, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus causing a compounding result.

In this way, the whole nest can be eliminated even though the location of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe for all your family including pets
