Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated areas. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can recognise the gaps and gain access through them once again.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and they will not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, termites move over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated locations, the possibility for termite access via untreated gaps is far lower.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a residence by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

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

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the structure design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
