Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide good protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and get access via them.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they do not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants go through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites can not identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain access through breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to erradicate termites in the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the timber. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for the kids and pets
