Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can detect these gaps and access the house.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants can also pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, providing a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites don’t identify non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood they were infesting until recently. 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 further colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house can make it tricky to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
