Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection in treated locations. If not all areas are reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access via them once again.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

As termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they identify no difference between areas that are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is frequently used to erradicate termites from your structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the timber. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

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 particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
