Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain access.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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 used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a home makes it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
