Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a flow on result.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a house makes it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for all your family & pets
