Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection around treated places. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can sense the breaks and again access the building.

The regularly frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Since the termites can’t detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this fashion, the nest can be eliminated even though the position of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the home design means that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to install.
