Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can detect these gaps and again access the house.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

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

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from houses 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 feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the residence design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
