Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants can recognise these gaps and could sometimes get in.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as 5 years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing 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 return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire colony can be eradicated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.
