Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection on treated locations. However, if the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can detect the breaks and again access the property.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

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

Because the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that 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 feed that bait to other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
