Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide great protection in treated locations. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access through them once again.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since termites do not identify non-repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a compounding effect.

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

In Ground Systems can 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 important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.
