Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because the termites can’t detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, but they are generally placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are especially useful when the construction of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
