Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

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

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from exposure to 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 result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated areas, the potential for termite access via non-treated gaps is much lower.

The often common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures they have been eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house makes it tricky to have effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting
