Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor locations can not be treated because of access problems, then white ants can detect the gaps and gain ingress through those areas.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to 5 years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility of termite ingress via untreated gaps is much lower.

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

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your residence by placing bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they are attacking. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the position of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not afflicted with weather
• No danger to children & pets
• Ecologically Smart

The Telltale Indications Of A Termite Infestation

There are several indications that your home has a termite infestation:

• Little holes in drywall and timber
• Timber is disintegrating or damaged
• Evidence of mud tubes on the brickwork, timber, ceiling and/or sub floor areas
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?

When left untreated, even just one nest of termites is capable of doing a surprising amount of damage. The home may even become unusable due to the severity of the infestation, and in extreme cases, can be irreparable.
