Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites will recognise these gaps and could potentially gain access.

The most widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is limited.

A frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your building by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar way, but they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the construction of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
