Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated locations. If not all locations can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can identify those gaps and get access via them once again.

The regularly frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

As termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even if 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 can 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 important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits
