Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they don’t stay away from the chemical. Because of this, white ants will pass through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the potential for termite access via non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most common used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to get rid of termites from your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even though 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 usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
