Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

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

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites can often pass the chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

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

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning 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.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

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