Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on result.

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

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to eight years after treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood 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 feed that bait to other colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar way, but they are generally placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.
