Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor some areas can’t be treated because of access problems, the termites will identify those breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they will not stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, termites will move over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites can not identify non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The most common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites from your property, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, creating a compounding result.

The entire colony can be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
