Managing & Removing Termites

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let us look at each briefly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite control: one is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and the other is with chemical treatments to create a barrier between the building and the white ants.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or areas can’t be treated because of access problems, then white ants may detect those gaps and gain access through those areas.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they will not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will move through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

As termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they identify no distinction between areas that are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your home by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating. This kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

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

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a structure can make it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
