Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites can recognise the gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the treated areas. Because of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

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

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures that they have been eating until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building makes it hard to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
