Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some places can’t be treated due to access difficulties, then termites will identify the gaps and attain access via them.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, creating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much reduced.

The commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a residual life of up to 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood they were infesting until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly installed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
