Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can detect the gaps and again access the house.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as five years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they will not steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will pass through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Since the termites can not identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a building by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, however they are usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not afflicted with weather
• No danger for youngsters & pets
