Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, they provide great protection in treated areas. If not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify the gaps and gain access via them once again.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

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

The regularly applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in the house, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a compounding result.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be eliminated, even if you do not 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.

In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they’re frequently situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.
