Termite Control/Protection Strategies

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at each quickly.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection for treated locations. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify those gaps and gain access via them.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites will also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

As termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the residence by placing bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the home design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
