Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided, so they provide good protection in treated locations. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and get access via them.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites can often pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

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

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites in the structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a flow on result.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even if you do not 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 especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
