Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can identify the breaks and once again access the home.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

Since termites cannot identify non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a residence by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this manner, the entire colony may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar manner, but they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
