Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites may identify these gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites do not identify non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is reduced.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

An entire nest may be eliminated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they’re generally situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the dwelling can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.
