Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants may often pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated areas, the potential of termite access via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The regularly common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the termites to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which produces a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be erradicated, 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.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a building can make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
