Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Since termites don’t detect non repellents, they don’t recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The regularly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the house by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, 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.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
