Termite Protection & Treatment

across the country it is quite common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Cornwallis annually, making termite prevention so vital.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at each quickly. There’s two main strategies performed for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and next is using chemical treatments to create a barrier between the building and the colony.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some areas cannot be treated due to access difficulties, the white ants will identify those gaps and gain access via those areas.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

The regularly applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites from your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, thus creating a flow on effect.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be exterminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Eco-friendly
