Generally, in Grose Vale, termite experts use a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some distinct advantages and should also be considered.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide good protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and get access via them once again.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die after 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.

Since the termites can’t identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the house 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 wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding result.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically situated throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the building design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.
