Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and gain ingress.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants will often pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites do not identify non repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on result.

An entire nest may be destroyed in this manner, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather
