Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites will identify the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as five years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites can also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, creating a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the potential of termite access via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

The most often used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of up to eight years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the wood that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another location.

An In Ground System is utilised in a similar way, but they are frequently placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger for the kids & pets
• Eco-friendly
