Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or areas can not be treated due to access problems, the termites may detect those breaks and attain ingress via those areas.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants can also pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient result.

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

The regularly applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber that they were eating until now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, however they’re frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are useful when the construction of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.
