Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites can’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures 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 termites 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 observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar manner, however they’re usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
