Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some locations cannot be treated because of access difficulties, the white ants may identify those breaks and attain access via them.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and they do not stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of 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.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

In-Ground Systems can 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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

• Not affected by weather
• Safe for all the family & pets
