Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants can recognise the gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they identify no difference between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the residence by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this manner, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a house will make it difficult to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for children and pets
• Eco-friendly
