Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them excellent for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect these breaks and access the property.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they won’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will move through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access via gaps.

The most used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a structure will make it challenging to have effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
