Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

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

The often widely utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites can often transfer these chemicals to other members of the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

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

The most common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to get rid of termites in the structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be exterminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
