Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites since 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 may discover the gaps and gain entry.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites can often pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the potential for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is far lower.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in 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 have been eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
