Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect the gaps and again access the house.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites can also transfer these chemicals to other members of the colony, providing a compounding and efficient effect.

Since termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures that they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this manner, the nest can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.
