There are different kinds of termite infestations therefore the best treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they are going to apply one of two general termite protection systems. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures that they were infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be exterminated, even though you don’t 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 utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed 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 swelling makes it challenging to install adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
