There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Castle Hill; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

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

Because termites do not identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is unknown.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
