Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover the gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of as many as 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

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

The often used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat features a residual life of as many as 8 years following application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the timber that they were eating until recently. 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 fashion, the nest can be eliminated even though the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are typically placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the building design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
