Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can sense these gaps and access the house.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can 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 rather than 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.

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even though the location of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
