Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some locations can’t be treated due to access difficulties, then white ants will identify those gaps and attain access through those areas.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. In addition, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a residence by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been attacking. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this manner, the colony can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

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