Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated because of access problems, then white ants may identify those gaps and attain ingress via them.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

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

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire nest can be exterminated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home can make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
