Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided, they provide good protection in treated areas. If not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain access through them.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Termite Control 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 instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the residence design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.
