Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can sense these gaps and again access the home.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and they don’t steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the chance for termite access through untreated gaps is lower.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a flow on effect.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a structure can make it hard to create adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe for all the family including pets
