Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and again access the building.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants can often transfer the chemicals to other members of the colony, providing a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites don’t detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a home by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they were attacking. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar manner, however they’re generally situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for youngsters and pets
• Eco-friendly
