Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated locations. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access through them.

The often commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your home by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they are eating. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

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

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly 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.
