Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover the gaps and gain access.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites will pass through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access via gaps.

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a flow on result.

The entire colony may be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

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