Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided, so they provide good protection for treated locations. If not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access through them.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites can not detect non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain access via gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to get rid of termites in your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, 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 continue to be in positions where there is termite 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 catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
