Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been infesting until now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony may be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for all the family including pets
