Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated places are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect these gaps and access the property.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will also pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient effect.

Since termites don’t identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

In this fashion, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned 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 house will make it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
