Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or some places cannot be treated as a result of access problems, then white ants will identify those breaks and gain ingress through them.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and so they do not avoid the treated areas. Because of this, white ants will move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated locations, the possibility of termite ingress via untreated gaps is much lower.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

An entire nest may be exterminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
