Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or some places can’t be treated as a result of access difficulties, then white ants may detect those gaps and gain ingress via them.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is often used to eliminate termites in the house, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, creating a flow on result.

The entire colony may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed 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 stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
