Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because the termites don’t identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent option is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the dwelling by placing bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they were 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 colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a structure can make it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
