Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites can’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The most common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a flow on result.

In this manner, the nest can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are typically placed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.
