Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the chance for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the dwelling by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even if you don’t 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.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the home design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
