Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants may also transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient result.

Because the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a house, 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 termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
