Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise the gaps and gain ingress.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites may also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures that they were eating up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

The entire nest can be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
