Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain access.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent on the market, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
