Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated places are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and again access the home.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after contact with them. In addition, individual termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

The regularly applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to erradicate termites from your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a compounding result.

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

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
