Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover the gaps and gain access.

The most frequently utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites will pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain access via possible gaps.

The most frequently used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as 8 years after application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a structure by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
