Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

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

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding effect.

Since termites don’t detect non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the structures they have been 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 feed that bait to other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

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 catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
