Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can identify the breaks and again access the home.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The most commonly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your structure by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they were attacking. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

An entire colony may be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for the kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

Signs That You May Have Termites

How Destructive Can Termites Be?
