Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and so they don’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, white ants go over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t detect non repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

An entire colony may be eradicated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest 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 white ant activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
