Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection in treated locations. However, if not all locations are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify those gaps and gain access via them.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and people which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites in your structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
