Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided, they provide great protection in treated locations. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and get access through them once again.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Because the termites don’t identify non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to erradicate termites in your structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on effect.

In this way, the nest may be eliminated even though the position of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a home makes it difficult to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Green
