Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated locations. If not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain access via them once again.

The most frequently applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites will also pass these chemicals to other members of the colony, providing a flow on and efficient result.

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

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to get rid of termites from your structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the colony is not known. 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 are in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger for kids & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
