Chlorpyrifos
Old style termiticide. It is an organophosphate and acts as a contact poison. It has a very short life span and is the most toxic to mammals. We do not use this in our treatments.

Bifenthrin
Is a Synthetic Pyrethroid and acts as a contact poison. It spreads poorly in soil so is not such a good choice when drilling and injecting. It is generally long lasting and is effective when trenching, flooding, backfilling and re flooding.

Imidaclorprid
Premise is a non repellent termiticide that has no odour or airborne residue and is completely safe for humans and mammals. In fact, the active ingredient in Premise (imacadclorapid) is used for flea control on cats and dogs (Advantage).
Its key features are:
• Provides a highly effective treated zone
• Spreads well in soil (lateral spread)
• Kills termites
• Produces no measurable airborne residues
• No odour
• No solvents
• Low risk to humans
• No irritancy
• Provides long term protection of the structure

Fipronil
Like Premise fipronil is a non repellant termiticide and therefore the termites cannot avoid the treatment. Fipronil will prevent concealed termite entry to structures for a minimum of 8 years on ALL TERMITE SPECIES - a claim no other termite control product can make. Fipronil is fast - on average, termite activity was eliminated within 4.3 weeks in Australian trials.Fipronil is less water-soluble and binds more tightly to the organic matter in soil than other non-repellent termiticides. This means it stays where it is applied.
