Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and once again access the property.

The most frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

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

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a house, 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 that they were eating until now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house can make it tricky to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
