Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can identify the breaks and once again access the home.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

A frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating until now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

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

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a building makes it hard to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
