Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise the gaps and gain access.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of up to five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites will then feed the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on effect.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a home will make it hard to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
