Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or locations can’t be treated because of access difficulties, then termites may detect the gaps and gain access through them.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants may often pass the chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the residence by placing bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently 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 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 white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a swelling makes it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
