Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated areas. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can identify the gaps and get access through them once again.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

The often used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures they have been infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

An In Ground System is used in a similar way, however they’re usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.
