Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, which makes 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, white ants may identify the gaps and can potentially get in.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and they don’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will pass over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain access via possible breaks.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been attacking. This kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

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 especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for kids and pets
• Eco-friendly
