Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites will recognise these gaps and could potentially get in.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a widely used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they do not steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, white ants pass through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas which are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to erradicate termites in the residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a flow on result.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, however they’re generally placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.
