Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect the gaps and again access the property.

The often commonly used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

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

An In Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, but they’re usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.
