Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and get access through them once again.

The regularly widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they will not steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites will move over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which results in a flow on result.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in places where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are typically installed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the home design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.
