Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will often transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Since the termites do not detect non repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a compounding effect.

In this manner, the whole nest may be eliminated even though the location of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a structure will make it difficult to create adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for all the family & pets
