Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated places aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can sense the breaks and once again access the house.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites don’t identify non repellents, they don’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.
