Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify these breaks and access the property.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have contact with them. In addition, individual termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since termites don’t identify non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is limited.

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

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a compounding result.

In this manner, the whole colony can be eliminated even when the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are typically placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the house design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
