Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some locations can’t be treated as a result of access issues, the termites can detect the gaps and gain ingress via those areas.

The regularly frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and they don’t steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, termites pass over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites can not identify non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly less likely.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

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

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

In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, however they’re usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Environmentally Smart
