Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants can recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites can’t identify non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding result.

In this fashion, the entire nest can be eliminated even when the location of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.
