Managing & Removing Termites

Termite treatments vary in terms of their goals and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are 2 major termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to produce a barrier in between the termites and the building to be protected.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can sense these gaps and access the building.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after contact with them. In addition, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t identify non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the timber. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on result.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be exterminated, even when you do not 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 are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a building can make it tricky to have effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

• Unaffected by weather conditions
