Typically, in Northbridge, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred type control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has distinct benefits and should be considered.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility of termite access via untreated gaps is lower.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a residence by placing bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the colony. 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 Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for children and pets
• Environmentally friendly

• The presence of mud tubes on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the house
• Obvious termite colonys & mounds in trees near the house
