Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify the gaps and could sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access via possible gaps.

The most commonly used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to 8 years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the dwelling by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

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

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not afflicted with weather
• No danger to kids or pets
• An environmentally smart solution

• Holes in the drywall and/or wood
• Damaged or collapsing wood
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on wood, floorboards, ceilings, brickwork and/or in underfloor areas
