Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, they provide good protection in treated locations. However, if not all areas can be treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

The most widely utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a compounding result.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they see no difference between areas that are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your structure by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 are used in a similar manner, but they are usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
